I worked with Rich and we had lively conversations about Indian motorcycles and Harley-Davidson motorcycles. I hope where-ever he may be he's getting that chance to ride that Indian he always talked about. I will miss our conversations. Go in peace.

Though I only knew him for a short time, I enjoyed golfing, Going to Aeros games with him and Carol. He always could find a smile to put on,even when it was hard to. He had a great sense of humor and you could always count on him making you laugh. He will be missed. Carol, we will keep you in our thoughts and prayers.
