My condolensces go out to the entire family and friends.
Rich was a very good man always
was nice to chat with about life.
I never knew he cut hair I found
that aspect of him to be truly
interesting.
I will miss the days of having a
cold one at Murphy's Tap Room and
Rich nursing a whisky.
God Bless Rich and may god hold you and never let go.
