Not sure what to say?

Stephen, I am so sorry to hear of Rich's passing. May you take comfort in knowing you had a wonderful life together and he is remembered as a wonderful person.

I only knew Rich a short time, but in that short time I felt honored to have met him- because Rich made everyone around him feel special, every single person. He taught me a lot, I won't forget that. Sending you peace and love!

Rich was a kind, hilarious, very pleasant gentleman and a very valued part of our Loyola community/family. Thank you for allowing us to remember and memorialize him in these ways. Our prayers are with you and the family. It was my honor to be able to do the closing song for the Memorial at The Church of the Most Holy Name of Jesus.

I am so sorry Steve!!
He was truly a sweet guy!

Be strong my friend!
Love you! Sándor

So very sorry to learn of the loss of your life partner Stephen.

No one can prepare you for a loss; it comes like a swift wind, but I take comfort in knowing that you are resting with the Lord. My most heart felt condolences.

Rich will be deeply missed! When I was a sociology student I loved going to relax in the office between classes just to talk to Rich. I loved coming back to work at Loyola eight years ago to see that Rich was still on campus and still helping and guiding so many students! Love and prayers!

It saddens me to know Richard will no longer be around. He gave the best advise to my daughter while she attended Loyola. I felt comfortable knowing he was there for her.......you will be missed! There is only "1" Richard (Rich) Wilson. May he rest in peace!

Rich was a kind and gentle man. I am a better person for having known him.

Rich, you are in my prayers.
