Not sure what to say?

On behalf of 1st Presbyterian Church, Wildwood, NJ. place accept our deepest sympathies. Our prayers have been with you Johanna and your family. Our only Comforter both in life and in death is that we belong not to ourselves but our Lord Jesus Christ.... a partial quote from the 1st Answer of the Heidelberg Catechism - I share this with you.
In Christ's Service
Rev. George H. Schmidt, Jr.

You will always live in our hearts and prayers.

I currently worked with Rich and will have to say he was a great guy. He spoke about his girls quite often as well as Va Tech. It is so hard to believe he is gone...I guess God works in mysterious ways...it is not for us to understand. Rich and his smile will be missed greatly. Rich's family can definitely be proud of the person he was.

Dear Johnna, Victoria and Patricia,
Our thoughts and prayers go out to you during this difficult time. My brothers and I spent many happy weeks at the beach with Richie, Mark and Ed, and all the other cousins. I have very fond memories of the softball games our extended family always played in Wildwood. We will all miss Rich and we are very sorry for your loss.

Our thoughts are filled with sorrow for your heavy burden. May your hearts find hope within the promise of tomorrow.
Aunt Judie and Alan

I just returned from a long trip and got the news. I love Rich more than a brother, and he was truly a best friend any guy in high school could have. Our prayers are with you all. Heaven just got one of the very, very best...ever.
Barbara and Scott Wahl (WHS '81)

Wheaton Family my heart and soul go out to you'all. I attended Wildwood High with Rich, and enjoyed his friendship. You will all be in my thoughts and prayers

I was privileged to share an office with Rich. He was the glue that bound everyone together here. We shared many interesting conversations. I will miss his wit, wisdom and mischevious sense of humor.

Our deepest sympathies to Rich's immediate and extended family. The Rose boys were the same ages as the Wheaton boys and spent many summers in Wildwood together growing up. I'll always remember Rich "walking on his toes".
