Rich,
It hurts to lose someone special.
You were a rare and special find. You will always be with us in spirit and in mind.
You will always have a special place in our hearts.
Rich, thank you for being like a brother to me and loving my family so much. Even though there is a large void in our lives now, we will always be there for your beautiful family.

Dear Atalese Family,
I am so sorry for your loss. I will never forget Mr. Atalese's loving smile that touched everyone he knew. I will always remember him as a great softball coach, a great family man, and friend to many. My prayers are with all of you through this difficult time. He will be missed.

Lisa..I am shocked and shaken now as I just found out.Whenever we saw eachother ...be it at and around the town,church,parties,school,soccer..or even in Hershey..Rich had the time to make us feel we were so special and worth his time to not only say hello,but to give a friendly hug and kiss and gleem into our eyes and truly give his undivided attention with such a warmth and caring and strength that I thought he was one of the finest human beings..a true Christian.His devotion to you ,Ashley...

Dear Lisa,
I can’t express my feelings of terror, sadness and unbelief when I got the news about Rich. He was a wonderful person, so kind and caring. His family was everything to him.
But… I guess, it’s not up to ‘us’ to decide when its time to go.
Our prayers are with you and your family! Rich will be always remembered!
