I just logged on to Tnet for the first time in a little while, and saw this. I'm so sorry, Steve and family. I just lost a parent last year also. I haven't been active enough on Tnet to really have known Rich, but I could tell how spirited a person he was and how much he must have brought to everything he did. I'm sure his posts here will be only one way he lives on.
I just wanted to let you know your father will be missed by all. We had many a conversations last year concerning CRH. He was always open to give advice. I was from his home state. My our Great Lord hold him in his arms with love.
I've been away from the CRH forum for a while and was deeply saddened to discover this. I'm deeply sorry for your loss Steve, Rich was a wealth of knowledge here. May he rest in peace, we'll all miss him.
