My condolences to the Kolze family. He was a great leader in the northwest suburban educational community. District 211 and Harper College will always reflect his wisdom & professionalism.

In memory of Richard Kolze. Though I regret that I couldn´t attend the services, I want to extend my heartfelt condolences to his children, my cousins, during this difficult time. Richard was a source of wisdom and guidance for so many. Many times over the years I reached out for his advice and/or referrals on important matters. I trusted his extensive knowledge and expertise. He will be greatly missed by all who had the privilege of knowing him.

My condolences to the family.

May God bless you and your family in this time of sorrow.

Dr. Kolze was the best and well respected person and administrator. We were all fortunate to have him as a leader in District 211. A great man. May he rest in peace. Bob Thorsness, Galena, IL
