    I am so sorry for your loss. Rich was a wonderful person and great to be around. I had the pleasure of working with Rich at FedEx and will miss him dearly. I will always remember how him and a few co-workers would do trivia every morning. I think that was the best part of his day. This was truly a shock and hope that your family finds peace in this horrible time.

    I can still hear his laugh.. I was blessed that our journeys crossed for a time. My heart and prayers go out to you, his family.

    Rich was a warm, bright, caring, family man. While I hope he has found peace, I can't help but think how much his family, friends and coworkers will miss him. He always used to quote a line from the movie The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel "Everything will be all right in the end... if it's not all right then it's not yet the end." It appears everything is all right now. Rest in Peace Rich. My deepest sympathies to Jill, Chris, Tim, Roxy, Anne and all his other family and friends.
