It basketball tournament time and I am a retired teacher/coach. My thoughts about games, teams, referees and such came to mind. I feel badly that I didn’t make the opportunity to talk to rich after us retiring. Rich was at the top of my list of outstanding officials. What an fair-minded, professional, competent “ref” he was. And off the court. A caring, conscientious gentleman and friend. I’m sorry to hear especially so late of his passing.

This evening (5.19.16), I was speaking with a Cintas representative, which got me thinking of my time working in the service department of Saturn of Pleasant Hills in the late 1990's. I then did some searching on line, and sadly, found that Rich had passed.
Rich was wonderful not just to work for, but to work with. He was truly a gentleman, showing respect to every customer, and knew how to elicit the best from everyone.
Your family will continue to be in our prayers, and I know he is still watching out for all of us.

Donna,
I'm so sorry to hear of Rich's passing. I have fond memories of working together with him. He taught me a lot about the business. He was quick with a joke and loved his basketball. He will be missed.
Please except our condolences.
