Sincere condolences and prayers for Richs family. Can't help but recall all the good times. Thank the goodness we predated iPhones! May he Rest In Peace.
As Marilyn Meunich was saying, we rode to school together our senior year. I played four years of football with him. He was a joy to be around and could brighten everyday. Especially those two a day practices in August. Always something funny to say!
My sincerest sympathy to Rich`s family and friends . His picture and writeup was in the Youngstown Vindicator yesterday 6/5 which I think was our graduation day from UHS .May he and all our deceased friends from school rest in peace .
