Sep 18, 2024Rob, Char, Abi and family, We are so sorry for your loss. We loved Rich dearly. We will never forget how quickly he could put a smile on all the kids faces when he was silly or had a plan that included some good old fashioned fun with sparklers glow sticks and a bonfire after a day on the water. Sending you all much love and strength.
