My heart aches for your loss, such a wonderful man and awesome neighbor. He helped us out many times with his excavation business, plowing out our drive when we were pounded with snow, and getting a vehicle stuck in the yard out. But most of all he was kind, hilarious and fun loving. May God give your family peace and comfort. Love you all. The Caler’s

Dot and family, I remember Rich well. His wonderful sense of humor, a twinkle in his eyes, and a man who cared for others and gave of himself to help someone when needed. He was easy to talk to and had many stories of being on the river. We are sorry for your loss. You are such a close loving family. Marcia and I always were blessed being around you all. As you were saying, “Rich has gone Home”, Jesus was saying, “Rich, welcome Home.” Just think, he is in the presence of our Savior. What a joy that must be!!!
