    My condolences to his family. I worked with Rich for many years at AT&T. We were like a family working there. As it says in his Tribute, let me go now and that we all have to take the walk home alone. It was great that we could share the same path with Rich in our telecom years – the good ol days.

    Many Blessings and may the Lord fill you with His peace and comfort you.
