To Marge and your family, we were very sorry to hear about the passing of Rich. We came to know and love Rich when he first came to Calvin College. We enjoyed many Sunday dinners with his Aunt Jean and Uncle Frank. Many years latter Rev. Rich officiated at Aunt Jeans funeral. Marge you played the organ beautifully and we will always remember the love you gave to our Mom.
I know Hen and Sam were proud of Rich and all he accomplished.

Our sympathy to you Marge and your family. We will always remember Rich as someone special. I can still hear him say a prayer for "just one more" soul to come to know Jesus. Rich loved the church, his Savior and missions. He will be missed.
