Not sure what to say?

My condolences are with you.

My heartfelt condolences to Sue and the entire extended family. Rich use to come to our house when I was a young kid to hang out with my two older brothers, Steven & Larry. I have good memories of him from all those years ago. We reconnected through email in Nov 2009 (again through my brother) & continued emailing up until very recently. He had such a great attitude. He cared about so many things. I'm so sad to hear of his passing. He will be greatly missed.

Rich and I worked together as a team (Sales Rep -Rich- and Systems Engineer -me-)on the Visa account in San Mateo for several years in the late 1970s and early 1980s. Rich was a dedicated and popular person with both customer personnel and his fellow IBMers. He was always friendly, competent, honest, and deserving of numerous IBM awards that he received during that period.
I send my deepest sympathy to his wife and family on their loss.

Rich and i were friends in the 60's. We attended First Lutheran Church, South City, together. We reconnected at the So. City High Reunions. At our 40th in 2004 we exchanged emails. He was staunchly conservative, very patriotic, loved his family and friends and his character was impecable. I shall miss him and ask God to bless his family.

I am sorry to hear of Rich's passing. I will always remember Rich from our High School years together. I hope your family finds some peace in knowing that his suffering is over.

My deepest sympathy to the family. I worked with Rich in 1978 at IBM in San Francisco. We had a great vist and picture taking at the IBM Reunion in Palo Alto October, 2009. So sorry to learn of his passing.
