Richie, you were a joy & a good friend. We skied, biked & hiked together- and you sure knew how to laugh over lemon seeds! What a blessing you were to this world! We´ll miss you! Kate & Phil & family .

I'm deeply saddened to learn of Rich's passing. The two of us shared many outdoor adventures over the years and were close friends until our paths diverged. I will miss him and treasure the memory of our good times together for the rest of my life.

My deepest sympathies to all of the Pawlowski family on the loss of Rich. He was a very nice person, always friendly to family & friends. I know that he will be missed by all of you, but find comfort in knowing that he is with his father & mother again. May God Bless you all.

I am saddened to read of Rich's passing. I can never watch a White Sox game without thinking of him. Your family is in my prayers. I worked with Rich at the Division of Family Resources. He was very kind and always had a friendly word for his co-workers. Take care.
