Rich might have not been biologically my dad however growing up as a kid without one and being fortunate enough to have him come into my life when he did I can say this rich never missed a single one of my games growing up whenever I scored on the court I always heard him in the crowd cheering me on whenever I had a bad game he would tell me how good I still played even when I didn’t rich taught me how to cook how to shoot a basketball how to play football and I might have not gotten the chance to properly say goodbye to him but he was one hell of a dad and I give a lot to credit to him on why I succeed today I’ll stop right here because I can probably go on and on of all of the great thing that man has done for me in my life I love you pops and thank you for being one hell of a dad

My condolences and sympathies. Rich seemed like a good guy who was getting his act together, and he was good to work with. I wish I could have done more for him.

I was heartbroken when I heard the news of Rich's passing. He was a big part of our family for several years and a very dear friend who will never be forgotten. Rich can rest now and fish to his hearts content.
