Rich - we know you're in a better place. We love you and miss you so much. We'll never forget everything you ever did for us. And we'll never let the kids forget Papa Rich. Thank you for being a great friend and a father figure and an awesome Grandfather. I realized something recently: every time we were together we never said bye. It was always "see you later, Rich." And you always said "OK, Pal." I don't think you ever called me Steve. It was always Pal. We were pals. I won't say bye now either. I'll just say "see you later, Pal" because I know I will see you again someday. You're pal, Steve.

I will always remember Richie as a supportive, sweet, funny gentleman who quietly did kind deeds for those around him. He was fun to work with, and always made me smile.
