It breaks my heart for a young man to be taken from life. My niece Danielle loved him so much I ache for her and as a mother my heart aches for his parents. I hope in time you all find peace and acceptance.

To Rich's family. So sorry for your loss, a child should never go first in any family. I met Rich through my granddaughter Danielle, we would always tease him about his hat that covered his cute face. I told him he could call me mom mom. He will be missed by my family. RIP Rich. Too young to be gone.

Rich,
You were loved more then you could ever imagine. Your smile lit up the room at every family celebration we had, and your laugh was infectious.....I will miss them both tremendously. I will also miss pointing to your shirt and asking "what's that?"....and you looking down (99% of the time) and then I "boop" your nose with my finger and say "GOTCHA"!! Ha Ha RIP buddy.....I Love You
Love
Uncle Eddie
