I met Rich when I moved to Daytona Beach Florida in about 2003. I knew Rich and Elizabeth before they married.
I was blessed to know Rich. I knew there was something very special about him. To death they did part. Rich came to know Elizabeth when he took care of her. Then Elizabeth took care of Rich at the end of his life. To Elizabeth and all of Rich`s friends and loved ones he will be missed. I know he has been welcomed into the arms of my Lord in heaven. Sincerely., Marion Schoeller
