Raylene, Marilyn, Gerald and family, Rich was my first boss and mentor at my first job. He was a great example and taught me so much. What I learned from him helped me my entire life. God bless all of you.

Raylene and family,
You are in my thoughts and prayers I was very glad to have known him. I would be there in person. I have moved from Butler to Dayton Ohio in 2021. I was a friend.
