Brian. I am so sorry for the loss of your dad. I always cherish the many memories of working at 4 star along side of you, your dad, Jim, Jana and Bart. I have to admit it was one of my favorite positions, mainly because of the people I worked for (The D'angelo's). I was very lucky to have been part of the 4 Star family. Love, Sara Sass (Hainstock)

Brian,

Your dad was a great guy and you know I loved him like an uncle and you like a cousin. I always remember him as an upbeat person who loved life. I loved the way he handled himself when someone would not be honest with him, he use to always say "ah it was good for a few laughs". Rich was a good friend to me, a good person and someone I always admired. His loss will leave a empty space in our lives, but think of all the space he filled in our lives with, laughs, kindness,good conversation, and a feeling that he was never to busy to spend time with us when we were kids. We sure had some good times with him at your house. His memomry will be with myslef and many other forever. Take care my friend

Brian and Laura,

Diane and I are so sorry for your loss. I have many very fond memories of your Dad such as:
The many Sundays you and I spent at the furniture store while he was working.
The days on Silver Lake on the pontoon boats he built himself.
You and I on the minibikes because he bought two rather than just one.
The Sunday morning breakfasts of coffee and rolls with your family.
Again, so sorry for your loss. I'm grateful for the good memories that I have of him.
