Ruth, although your sorrow is great, may Rich's legacy of courage, strength, and love for his family sustain you always. May your children call upon that courage and strength all their days; and may God's love fill your hearts and souls with peace.

Rich-
When I worked for you in Manassas, I remember when I first interviewed with you. HR had to come get me because you had so much to talk about. I will always remember how sharp you were with your numbers in our proposal meetings!! You were an inspiration!

You are the most brilliant person I've ever known in dealing with numbers. You constantly amazed me during the year I worked for you...
