Richard Wein Obituary

Richard Carl Wein, age 59, of Devon, PA, passed away suddenly and unexpectedly in the early morning hours of June 21, 2022. He had been battling Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML) for the past 6 months, was in full remission, and was expected to make a full recovery. Rich was a loving husband, best friend and love of her life to Becky (Rebecca Ziegler Wein) for 34 years. He was a role model and loving father to his four children, Carter Douglas, 22, Claudia Paige, 18, Griffin Charles, 16, and Fraser Isabel, 13. Rich was a 1985 graduate of Cornell University. He was the CEO and founder of Aquipt and Systems Solutions Inc., since 1988. He enjoyed his work and the ever changing technology world, but mostly enjoyed the relationships and friendships he made throughout the years. Rich was born on February 28, 1963 and raised in Dolgeville, NY and spent his life summers at Pleasant Lake in Stratford, NY. He continued this legacy with his children, spending summers on the same lake where he taught them to swim, water ski, wakeboard, snowmobile, and shoot. He loved to prove that he “still had it” by wakeboarding daily and doing jumps and turns for anyone who would watch. He had a killer sense of humor, the willingness to help anyone, and a strong moral compass that guided his family. Ice blue eyes, an infectious smile and a loving heart were just a few of the words used to describe this beautiful man. Rich was an avid outdoorsman who loved to hike, mountain bike, wakeboard and travel. He was happiest in the Adirondack mountains and in Sanibel, FL surrounded by family and friends. Rich is also survived by his mother, Claudia Wein of Dolgeville, NY (Fredric Wein), sister, Cynthia Wein Korzelius and her husband Rick, and their four children, Richard, Jack, Bradley and Connor; brother, Doug Wein and his wife Beth, and his three children, Robert, Ashley and Jordan; and sister, Laurie Wein. A private family service will be held this weekend in the Adirondacks and Celebration of Life will be held at Episcopal Academy Chapel in Newtown Square on July 23, 2022 at 11:00am. In lieu of flowers donations can be made to the JDRF Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation. (www.jdrf.org/memorial) STUARD - NEWTOWN SQUARE A FAMILY TRADITION SINCE 1822

Rich was a fraternity brother of mine and next door neighbor at the house. One of the truly great guys, he was quick w a smile and always ready to help w any project going on at the Gam. So much fun to hang out with, I hadn't spoken to him in a long time but will always have the fondest memories of his generous spirit. Gone way to early, Bless you my brother. All my thoughts a prayers going out to your family

I have no words to express how saddened to learn of Rich's passing. I had the privilege to work with him developing the SSI and Aquipt brands. As transplants to Philly, we bonded easily both growing up in upstate NY. We loved sharing common outdoor interests - and especially the Adirondacks. He was a good person, smart and loving husband and father. My prayers are with his family.

I was very close to Rich at Cornell and he was my first "Little Brother" at Fiji. We enjoyed 3 solid years of college and fraternity life to together. I will miss him greatly. He had such a warm soul and a good spirit. I hadn't kept up with him over the years, but when we did speak it was as if time stood still. All the best to my good friend to your family.

Rich and I met at Cornell through Rugby and had a very full summer together in Boston selling office coffee services with Mark Osborne, Tom Sleepy Floyd and Tom O´Reilly and the sort of stupid fun stories that can only happen in college or with first jobs. Rich was always fun to be with, a kind guy, and a good sport and good competitor whenever we were on opposite sides. I´m not surprised he built a wonderful life for his family and kids, something to be extremely proud of. The world needs more good men like Rich.

Our sympathies to the entire Wein family. Your family has had a significant impact on Hill Top Prep since you began here with Griffin. It is easy to see first hand the impact that Rich had on Griffin as he has grown and more recently he displays the leadership and caring for others just as his dad has always done. Our thoughts and prayers go out to you at the time of this loss.
