As a kid, Uncle Rich was the funny Uncle who had such a distinct voice. I always knew it was him when he called my mom (Marilyn), his sister. It wasn't only his voice that stood out to me, but his sense of humor! He ALWAYS had a joke! Our thoughts and prayers go out to all.
With Love,
The Palmer's

Our prayers and sympathy to you Barbara, Steven, David, and Carolyn from another of the younger of his cousins who looked up to Butch as our older cousin when we were kids. As we all have passed the 50 mark he doesn't seem to be that much older anymore. Our thoughts are with Aunt Marie and Marilyn also. Mom (Ann Holzman) can't get her computer working these days so asked me to send her sympathy. She regularly reported about Butch's email updates which she enjoyed receiving up through last week. Our prayers to you from Uncle Jake's Family.

Our thoughts and prayers are with you all. We were so sad to hear that Richard had passed away. We have many, many happy memories of growing up with "Butch". Even though he was one of the "older" kids, he was always kind to us "little ones". We will miss him. Our deepest sympathies to all of you. Love, The Felicellis (Aunt Bette)

My deepest sympathies to the Holzman family. My dad is a lifelong friend of Rich. I had the pleasure of working for Rich when I was a young man. He was such positive person and manager. I always remember his infectious sense of pride for all his responsibilities. "His facility was the jewel of the corporation". He set the professional standard that I still try to adhere to today: "Any job worth doing, is worth doing well!". Rich will be missed by all whose lives he touched. My thoughts and prayers are with his family at this sad time.

I was so sorry to hear of Rich's passing. We worked together for many years and I have so many fond memories of those times. Recently we have been emailing a few times and he seemed hopeful that he would have more time, but also prepared for the worst. My deepest sympathies go out to the family.

We are sorry to hear of Richard passing away.. I'll be missing his E-mail. I look back at the times when he was a young boy, and always called him Butchie. This is the way I'll be remember him. Love Aunt Mary and family.

I wanted to express my sympathy to the Holzman family. Rich was a one of a kind person. I didn't know that his condition had deteriorated so badly from our communication but he probably wanted it that way. His passing has left our world a sadder place, but one with wonderful memories. Our thoughts and prayers are with you in this time of sorrow.
