Richard Szulczewski

We lost an amazing person in our lives. There are no words to express how much it hurts to know that you will no longer be with us! You will be greatly missed by your family and friends. You were an amazing uncle and I will never forget the times we shared. I'm so blessed that you were a part of my life and that you got a chance to meet my daughter before God took you from us. Love always and forever, Amanda (Sal), Justin and Alexa.

Rich was a wonderful son-in-law who was dearly loved. Always cheerful and helpful. It won't be the same without him. He will be greatly missed.

I just still can't believe you're gone. It's going to be so different not having you at family gatherings...Christmas, I was expecting to come in to you joking about something or razzing someone with that big grin on your face and your distinctive giggle. I'm really going to miss you.
I want to thank you for taking care of my sister and family for all of these years. There was no one better than you. Safe journey, brother...Heavens a much better place and the world just got a little...

The world feels a little smaller today, emptier, since the loss of my brother-in-law Rich. He was a great husband, father, grandfather, brother, uncle and friend. He was the type of person who would do anything for you and he would do it with a smile. He was always the life of our family gatherings; quite the joker. You couldn't miss his laugh, it was so contagious. :) Rich loved my sister and their children more than anything and he was very proud of them. He was happiest when he was...

I will never forget our phone call and the last words I said to you on that Sunday before you passed, "I Love You!" and you said it back. Wow, never in a million years did I think that would be the last time we spoke. But I will forever treasure that conversation. It breaks my heart that I never came up to see you in the hospital. You were supposed to come home Friday. How unfair that you were taken so young! You were a great husband to my sister, father to your kids and grandfather. ...

You are in our prayers and thoughts.

Brenda, and family,
My deepest condolences on Rich's passing. I will miss him, as I'm sure the rest of his friends and family will too.

Brenda, Trevin, and Jarin:

Two things really stick out to me....what a nice, hard working man and great athlete Rich was. The second was how much he loved his family and was proud of you all. His work on earth will continue with the values he taught all of you. To one of my best friends Trevin....I'm here for you as always. Love you.
