Not sure what to say?

I remember spending Sunday afternoons at Uncle Punks, playing in the storeroom and drinking Smiths sodas. Richie was always full of spunk and mischief. The world is a quieter place without him. Rest in peace, cousin.

Ritchie, what a great childhood playmate. From a very early age, about 5, Ritchie taught me the joy of popping tar bubbles on Julian street in Williamstown. Find a tar bubble, push it and sometimes warm water would pop out. Always ended up at my grandmothers house to get our tarred hands cleaned with Crisco. Thanks for the memories Ritchie.

I would like to extend my deepest sympathy to the Aukstakalnis family..I knew Rich since 1964. He was so much fun to hang around with and I can't imagine this world with him not in it. He was my best friend and we spent a lot of time together growing up in Wmstwn. I will miss him, but never will forget him.

Sorry to hear of Rich passing. May he rest in Peace

Where there is injury . . . pardon

Where there is doubt . . . faith

Where there is despair . . . hope

Where there is darkness . . . light

Where there is sadness . . . joy

O Divine Master, grant that I may not so much seek

To be consoled . . . as to console

To be...

To the family:
I got to know Rich back in the early 70's when we worked at Muskin Shoe. He was always such a pleasant, likeable, friendly guy. May he rest in peace.
