We went to Gray together, a childhood friend who I will never forget. Always inviting us out to Florida when he moved there and teasing me of the warmth while I complained of the cold here .A heart of gold to those he knew and loved. God gained a Angel. Your Wolf pack is mourning your loss. My sincere condolences to his family. He was one of a kind. Love & Miss you Big Guy. Rest Peacefully my Friend
I knew Rich from the 1st grade at William P Gray. He was the bass player in my band back in grammar school. We were friends for many years and had so much fun in high school and grammar school. Rich was able to get me into the company he was working at in 1979 and I am still there, almost 41 years later. We drifted apart over the years, but I will always remember him. I can still see the smile on his face when we would sing the "Cowboy Song" by Thin Lizzy. He loved that song. Rest In Peace my friend.
I am shocked! Richie was one of a kind. Funny ,Smart and a Heart of Gold. He helped me and family when others ran away. I loved him like a brother and missed him dearly when he moved to Florida! "Richie if your listening in Heaven, I wish I would have took you up on the invite to come visit you in Florida. I also put off calling you...I always told myself...next week...well we have no more next week. RIP my brother, God must of needed your big smile and heart in Heaven!
Richie was blessed in so many ways. Especially with his wonderful family that he loved so very much. But I've been blessed with Richie. He invited me in when I was down and out, as he did with so many others. He always lifted my spirit. He was my friend. He was my brother. "The Runt" with the heart of a giant. I regret not visiting him more often as I should have.
I miss him terribly already.
He'll always be in my heart. We will remain brothers forever.
