Rufus Haynes Ritchie

Always gracious, Dr. Ritchie will be remembered for his ready smile, his agreeable disposition, and for an obvious enthusiasm for life and its many wonders. By all accounts, Ritchie was blessed with an exceptional mind, highly regarded by colleagues worldwide, yet showing genuine kindness and humility to all. Ritchie was a gentleman in the best sense of the word. He and others of his generation made the world a better place; we will miss him.

Sonny was mischievous and fun. He enjoyed telling people about Dorothy and his family.

He was appreciated, and he will be missed.
