Not sure what to say?

It's been almost ten years since Rich passed. I still smile every time I think of him. And I still smile when I talk to my dearest friend/cousin Mary. Wonderful people. I can still hear Rich's distinctive laugh!

Mary. Don't know if you'll remember me. I was one of Richs' roommate in Urbana. Met you there. We did some recordings in Chicago around the same time. Loved his humor and he was the best pianist I ever worked with. We recorded some original music at the art institute of Atlanta. God Bless

Dear Mary Beth,
I was on the Internet looking for a way to reconnect again with the two of you. I am deeply saddened to hear of Rich's death. The two of you were the nicest couple ever!!! You must miss him enormously. Please reach out to me. I included my email address. Your buddy from the past, Ginger

I'm so sorry I just today learned of Richard's passing.

He was a fine lawyer and an even better gentleman.

It was an honor to know the man.

My condolences to his Family and friends.

Condolence to the family. I only knew Richard through his sister Debbie. When we were teens he would practice in the basement and we would go down and listen to "The Band". Again my condolences.

I went to St. Columba grade school with Richard in Hegewisch. He was part of a group of several friends through high school. My thoughts and prayers to your family.

Dear Mary and family, I played with Rich in Montage in the early 70s and was the bassist/lawyer, from whom Rich got the idea to go to law school (I also went to Loyola). As my own wife just passed in October, I understand how you feel and wish you and your loved ones the best. Please accept my condolences. BoB Simons

I have worked worked with Rich for 15 years, he will be missed. My condolence to the family at this time. You will be in my prayers.
