  1. It was always the best when you made Uncle Rich laugh. He always had a twinkle in his eye. And he loved his family so fiercely.

    Heaven has for sure been awarded an angel. And I know God welcomed him with open arms. And Aunt Shirley was right there waiting for him.

    Love to all my cousins.

  3. My sincere heartfelt condolences to the entire family. Uncle Rich was a hard working family man who I remember could dance up a storm with his beloved Shirley. He and my dad talked often during the last year of my dads life and they told endless stories of the old days where they grew up. Fishing in Pierce Creek, my dads truck, Duck hunting and endless fishing stories. My dad preceeded Rich to heaven by just three months. Both patriarchs of their families will be missed by all that knew them.
    Prayers of comfort have been offered for all.

  5. Uncle Rich was a great man who loved to tease people. I always enjoyed hearing the stories they would tell about growing up when “the sibs” would get together. It always seemed like they had a great time as a family. He will be hugely missed.

  7. We will surely miss Uncle Rich. I loved his dry sense of humor and witty remarks. He was a great all around guy and story teller.
