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.

Rich & I grew up in the same house in Brooklyn when we were young boys. His parents had the bottom 2 floor apartment & my parents had the top 2 floors. After we moved to Pennsylvania we stayed close. As adults we lost touch but then we reconnected & I spent time visiting him in Florida. He was such a fantastic man and his humor was incredible. I will miss him so much. We talked all the time on the phone..
