Rich. I just wanted to share a quick memory. We were both outsiders to the family (in-laws). Attending family functions was always a bit stressful for me, especially in the beginning. Rich you were ALWAYS my go to guy. You made me feel comfortable and welcome. Christmas with you and Kathy and the boys are times I will never forget. Cheers my brother!!!
