Richard M. Tencati

I would like to join the list of USPS employees who started in the post office on the same day in 1979. Rich and I were clerks together for a while and I have often thought of our crew over the years. We worked late afternoons in the beginning and I remember eating "lunch" at 11 PM and the bonds we forged. My deepest condolences for the loss of a fine man.

Don and I met RICHARD in 1979 when Don and Rich both started at the post office as clerks. As the years went by Don played golf and softball with Rich. We lost touch over the years, but will always remember Rich fondly. Rich will always be remembered as a friendly, great guy your friends, the Lanes of West Springfield Our condolences to the family!

RICH WAS ONE OF MY FIRST FRIENDS ENTERING THE USPS. WE STARTED ON THE SAME DAY AND HAD SOME GREAT TIMES PLAYING PITCH ON OUR BREAKS. WE ALWAYS CONSIDERED OUR GROUP, ME, RICH, AL AND DON SOME OF THE BEST WORKERS IN THE ENTIRE POST OFFICE. WE PLAYED SOFTBALL TOGETHER FOR A COUPLE YEARS AND HE WAS A FABULOUS HITTER AND FIELDER. AFTER A FEW YEARS OUR CAREERS TOOK DIFFERENT PATHS AND WE NEVER WORKED TOGETHER AGAIN. I WAS SHOCKED AND SADDENED WHEN I HEARD THAT RICH HAD PASSED AWAY. SINCERE...
