My first and ALYWAYS MEMORIES OF RICH WERE OF OF THE MOST CORDIAL, Friendly, Caring and and Positive persons I have Ever Known. I just wish it were not SO many years SINCE I SEEN HIM SINCE THE LAST. I miss the old rendezvouses with Friends at Jethro´s, fun times on trips in Havasu, and the special memories on the houseboats we partied in with the old Gang. I miss his friendly advises on Life, and frankness and about Life in general! I will miss you always Rich! I wish is could present a photo but those are many many years ago to get back to. Peace and Love. Gloria Johnson

Although we met later in life at an enjoyable Holt family reunion In Minnetonka my most vivid memory is as kids at Grandpa Holt's fishing lodge near Grand Rapids, MN where Richard tried to waterski behind a row boat. All us cousins looked up to Rich for his adventure and pleasant company.

I am one of Rich´s cousins from his mother Esther´s side. We shared Rich´s grandparents Erick and Ellen. Many family memories from earlier times arise. It´s been many years, perhaps 30, since I spent time with Rich. But I do remember him as very kind and almost always in good humor, a man with decency and sensitivity. My condolences to his family in this time of loss.
