To Rich's Family: Dick and I were 5 months apart in age, I the senior. We actually knew each other from our very early days, as our parents were very good friends and Arnold V. Arms, MD, was their interest, as well as mine and my wife's. Though a year ahead of you at Pem-Day, we played football together and track. And years later, you sat in the row behind Debby and I at the Chiefs football games. So as I go to the games this year, I will think of you always having my back. May your family recall the many beautiful memories that you had together, knowing that your memory will be a blessing for all. Gary Cortes
