45 years old, asleep in the arms of Jesus. Leaving behind father Richard Sr., son Brian, and sister Shanda. Rich was a hard working young man. He was a loving son to his father, a good friend to many. He had a great sense of humor and was honest to a fault. He loved his job and was an excellent employee.
Rich worked so hard on his personal issues and had overcome so many obstacles. His family is very proud of him and all that he acomplished.
Our sense of loss is without equal.
Rich was strong, smart, generous, considerate and fun loving. He had a soft heart, but he feared nothing. Rich beleived in and respected God. His greatest joy was his dad, who misses him in quiet desperation.
Rich faced danger many times, but dangerous things did not take him. He died suddenly at home, accidentally.
It didn’t take much to make Rich happy. He liked a nice home and a good meal. He loved his Dad, his son and his friends. He sleeps now, and his father grieves, and remembers him loving, and living, and leaving.
