Rich,
I have such fond memories of Dave and I, going fishing with you as a little kids. Nobody can ever take that from me. Looking at present day, you must be proud to see what your children have turned into and what they have become. I have known you, for 30 plus years and can tell you it was a pleasure to have been your friend. I will miss you " ANDRE "

David and Laura.......Your Dad was a "giant" in many eyes. I remember your Dad from high school years at CCHS. As a matter of fact, my date and I doubled with your Dad to the senior prom and it was a night full of laughter and fun. You and your Dad are in my thoughts and prayers.
