Never heard him say a cuss word. He would come to our house every Sunday evening in the summer to play baseball after supper and then basketball after it got too dark. He was always kind, hard-working, intelligent, inspirational. There was never any doubt he could have played pro baseball or basketball. Team player like Byrd

Harold and family, please accept my deepest sympathies on your loss. Rich was one of the best "kid" athletes I have ever seen and certainly the best youth baseball player. I always liked Herman and Florence as well.
