Rich will always be remembered by me as a kind and generous man. He happily contributed supplies from the hardware store to a re-building project for a charity that I was affiliated with a few years ago. His donation made a difference in the lives of others in the community and will leave a lasting legacy. My family and I are saddened for your loss and hope that fond memories will comfort you through this difficult time.

It is with deep sadness that I write in memory of a dear and kind person. Rich had a quite and tender soul. He was always incredibly kind and a true gentleman. We lost touch since our days at Mellon but his memories have remained. His influence will be a part of me always. God bless his family and friends during this difficult time. Nancie Lynch Congemi

Maribeth and boys,
I'm so sorry and so very shocked. Life is so precious and we all forgot how quickly it can change.
I am sitting here recalling all the fun times at the wonderful ski trips I had with Rich and the Visa crew. Guess you could say those were the good old days.
Know that you are in my thoughts and prayers. This is a sad time. Rich will be missed by many.
