Rich was a very close friend and Best Man at my wedding to Judi Lang, in Chicago, in February, 1993. Im deeply saddened to hear, this many years later, of the loss of such a dear friend and close confidant. Rich and I started our friendship at Quasar Company in Franklin Park, IL. A friend to many, he will be fondly remembered, and dearly missed. My deepest sympathies go out to Dawn and family.
