Father Rich was my junior year religion teacher at St. James High School in Chester, PA. However, more importantly he was the moderator of the Community Service Corps. It was because of him I developed my sense of service, care, and concern to others. He was an amazing person!

My "Big Bro" as he referred to himself. I've known Rich since the 60's. A kinder, good man you'll never find. Not a phony bone in his body. A loving man. Always around to help spiritually, physically when there's a job to be done, or just his presence was enough. There was an aura about him. I will miss him.


My love always...Dennis J. Peacock, Sr

Fr. Rich personified love. He was always joyful and had such a zest for life. I remember him always smiling, laughing, and always with a story to tell. He did not hesitate to come when a person was in need. He was an integral part of many significant events in mine and my family's lives. He married me and my husband, baptized my husband, and said the funeral masses for both of my parents. I am so fortunate to have known him and been blessed by him.

Fr. Rich, always representing for the Marianist Family Ministry.

Fr. Rich was one of the most peaceful men I have ever known. It was easy to be relaxed around him. He had a way of letting you know you were loved and accepted. He was a great friend to my family and will truly be missed. My heartfelt condolences to his friends, fellow Marianists and family. Love from here in NC.

I'm sorry to hear that Father Rich has left us, but he has certainly earned his reward and I praise God for all the good he has accomplished! He will be remembered by many.
