I have had a nice friendship with Rich for the past 25 years. He was one of the most thoughtful, generous & hilarious people that I have ever known. He really enjoyed making friends and it was effortless for him. It was always nice to catch up and I loved getting updates on his kids Colleen & Connell because he was always so proud of them. He adored his wife Erika who was truly his best friend!! I am thankful for the memories and I will never forget my buddy Rich Rooney, rest in peace my good man!!
