Rich wrote those words in a scrapbook sixty years ago, not knowing the life that lay ahead of him and how many lives he will have touched by the time he was done.

I will always cherish my memories with my lil bro, Rich, we shared a lot with many stories.
A cute one!
A Christmas gift, Rich was overjoyed playing with the miniature Indian and Cowboy figured dolls including their tents, wagons, horses and villages, etc. He asked me if I could play with me and he decided me to be the Indian. While we both played as the enemy battle, I tried to beat him by my horse to knock down his horse. He told me I must fall dead because cowboy always win the war. I got upset and screamed that brought my mom over and he spoke her too fast that I didn’t have the chance to explain. So mother explained, we should take turns and you can imagine what his face looked alike!
Of course, we experienced some physical fight while very young and this one, we never picked a fight was.
He usually went to bed around 7:30pm and I at 7:45pm, we very often crawled out of our bedroom floor playing card games for about 30 minutes. He listened if parents were coming and we know when to zoom to our beds.
No matter where we live, we always contacted each other by letter or stop by, and thru wonderful video phone on every Friday evenings.
