Greg and Family - so sad to read about the passing of your Dad Rich. Got to know him years ago when I worked at Channel 18 and he bought advertising from me. We produced the first "I did it myself at Do It Yourself" TV spot. Always enjoyed talking with him although it had been several years since we last spoke. Please know that Rich and your entire family are in our prayers. So sorry for your loss.
