What a great man for God to choose to come to his kingdom. I truly feel honored to have had the opportunity to get to know the most generous and kindest man who would give you the shirt off his back even though he was freezing. I will miss his sense of humor, pride and loyalty to everything he touched. God has a special Angel with him now. Rest in peace, Rich. Life will not be the same without you.

To the Waser family, I am very sorry for your loss.
I worked secondary security for Rich for about five years while I was a Jefferson County Deputy Sheriff. I got to know Rich, Sandy and the girls well. My daughters became friends with the girls and occasionally spent the night together. Rich was one of the hardest working people I've ever known. He was always exceeding his customers expectations. He was a great person to work for. Thanks for everything Rich! Rest in Peace.
