John A. Ritchay Sr.

Mike and the Ritchay family, we know how hard it is to lose a father. He taught you well. Our thoughts and prayers are with you. God bless.

John and family, I'm sure your father was very proud of all of you. You have shown my family in the last 2 months your thoughtfulness, kindness, caring and compassionate feelings as you helped us make final arrangements for our parents.
You and your families have our deepest condolences and prayers.

Hello Ritchays-- please accept my belated condolences on Uncle John's passing. I can imagine how much humor and gratitude were in evidence at today's celebrations, because he brought both in abundance wherever he went. I know my dad was always glad to be living again with his Ritchay family, and was glad to hear that Jane had joined your dad at the Renaissance. Sympathies and greetings to all your assembled families from the Nashes. We'll be remembering you and your mom and dad through this...

Dear Susan, Marc, Justin & Maggie,

I did not know your dad, grandpa personally, but I can tell by how he raised a wonderful family.

Susan, I know this is a difficult time for you & my thoughts & prayers are with you.

Sincerely, Elaine Bunczak

We caregivers feel that grief, too. I remember when my father died a priest, meaning the well, said " well, you grew up...
