Charmaine and Family:

I returned from a week's vacation to find that Rich had passed away.

Please accept our deepest sympathy.

My family and I hold him and you dear to our hearts for the special kindness and care bestowed on us with the passing of my husband.

Rich also filled many of us with peace as he sang the traditional Polish song at the cemetery before the burial of many of our loved ones.

May God Bless and Keep You through this difficult time.

I was a student of his at Kennedy Elementary School from the day it opened until his regrettable transfer. I want to first apologize for not being able to attend any services. This man was and will always be of great importance to my life. He instilled in me family, patriotism, education, and country. I believe that is enough to say. Our country lost a great man in my mind.

My deepest sympathy for the loss of a wonderful man. Richard and his wife helped me so much when first my mom died 21 years ago and then when my dad died 9 years ago. We had to send my dad's body to the Zarzycki's from Clearwater, FL and both Mr. and Mrs. Zarzycki helped me so much.

My best regards in this time of sorrow.
