Condolence: My heart felt condolences go to you Becky in this time of sorrow and grief. I didn't know Rich personally but I have grown to know you, Katlin and Ray but that doesn't mean I don't grief for you. Seek God in times of darkness as he is the one true light of life.

Condolence From: Brian E. Lutes
Condolence: Memories are to many to recall because as long as Becky and Richard were married I have been a part of their lives. Big Rich has always made sure that I was happy and taken care of. It's funny I use to describe him to my friends as "My invincible bear". He was a man that always extended his heart and his hand wherever needed. He would smile and it would be close to impossible to not smile back. When him and his son would start on something such as little saying or references to a certain language it was so stupid but it made you laugh no matter what. I have memories to last a life time to constantly put a smile on my face when thinking about Big Rich. May you have a safe journey to your next destination. Love ya always Big Rich

Condolence: Rich was one of the best dudes I have ever had the pleasure of being friends with and also working with. He was truly a class act...so kind, big hearted, soft spoken... a real teddy bear. I will for sure miss the time we shared and all the talking we did. We taught each other a lot! Till we meet again one day Big Daddy - my friend!
Thoughts and prayers to the entire family in the days ahead! He will truly be missed!
