We met Rich when he coached little league with our son Jesse. He was patient with the kids and always encouraging. Good person, fun sense of humor.

I met Richard in 1976, played softball for Pizza King team. He married my friend Don's sister, Dianne. He was great friend, help with anything and was always there when needed - replacing a roof or a BBQ and horseshoes on a Sunday afternoon. Always fun, always cool. He will be missed.
