Not sure what to say?

Rich and I were at the Academy together and enjoyed skiing together. A great guy.

The world has said farewell to a kind, warm, loving, gentle man with an incredible wit and sense of humor. I´m glad and grateful for the times we shared in our youth in Boothbay Harbor...ah, the good `ol days! My heartfelt sympathy and condolences to his family, who miss his presence so very much in their lives. Heidi Hartford

My brother Rich left us too soon. I have lots of memories from our working together in Vermont to California where we were room-mates. While I joined the Navy, Rich and stayed to work until he married Judy and eventually moved back to Albany. All the memories... I found a few old family pictures one from 1957 another from about 1978 and his graduation from college with our mother Virginia. Rest in peace Rich. You are a great brother, not to be forgotten.

Rich was a warm and easy going person. Very likeable! We were in the same football team at the Albany Academy. He was a wide receiver and I was a running back. I still remember throwing him a pass in the end zone. Hopefully he caught it! I was on the ground and couldn't see what happened. A great guy! I'm sure he is in a good place in the beyond. My condolences and best wishes to his family.

A great Troy boy! Rest in peace-woody Rea

My memories of Rich go back to the Academy and of his friendship and help he always offered. He was a good friend and he will be missed. May God welcome him with open arms... rest in peace Rich.
