I miss you everyday

You will be truly missed, it was so great to know you.

Dear Rusty, Russ and family! When I saw rich's name and picture I just couldnt believe it it was true! I am sad as I know you all are! He is such a vibrant soul! It just seems impossible that it's been 25 years that he walked into the Recorders and we worked together learning everything we could. We worked hard together and we shared many memories. He has so much passion for his job! And for him to not be there is so weird. We had something that I am so grateful to experience. So much time...

What a tragic loss for our community. Working for a local municipality, I came to know Rich more than 15 years ago, and we developed a great relationship. He knew his stuff and was good at his craft, but he was also a good listener and ever learning when the way things were done didn't always jive with real life issues. Together we learned that working through hard things and finding solutions together creates close relationships. God's speed, Rich. You will be missed, my friend.

This Guy.....This guy right here....Was the GOAT! He was truly one of a kind. Many, many years of back and forth trying to figure out what in the world is the public doing now? The kind of person that never judged and was always true to you and himself. So sorry for his family and all his friends. He will be missed. Rich R.I.P. Bud..... "You're harshing my mellow"

What? Who will help me when I have a question no one else can answer at the recorders office?? Rich was amazing at his job, so knowledgeable and helpful. His gruff voice could make you hesitate but then you saw that he really enjoyed being so good at what he was doing. What a great trait now days, someone who gets things done and would do it right, not always the fastest but the way it's suppose to be done. As a real estate broker I learned a lot from him about county recorders. ...

Say it isn't so. Rich has passed on. Rich was the greatest. He's the go to guy if you needed help in the County Recorder's Office. In addition, I considered him a friend. My condolences to his family and friends. Brent Overson, former Salt Lake County Commissioner
