I found a lifetime friendship that I will cherish always!   He will definately be missed.   There are so many things that just to see them reminds me of him.  A can of beenie weenies because he ate them cold straight from the can every morning for breakfast, glazed donuts because he would stop at the donut shop before work and bring them in for Tina and I for breakfast.....while he ate the cold beenie weenies.  Aliens because he was certain that when his machine wouldn't run that there must have been aliens in the night before messing with his machine. The do rag that he always wore and the famous saying of "don't worry about it" will bring a smile to our face. The list could go on and on....... Not a day will go by that we won't think about and miss Rich.........I am truly blessed to have had him in my life. #6 from: Johna Nibert   Tue, Jun 2, 2009 at 6:19 PM Jake and family so sorry to hear of your loss. No words can express our sympathy. Thinkins of your family.   Bill and Johna Nibert #7 from: Kay (Wood) Totman   Tue, Jun 2, 2009 at 7:34 PM I will always cherish the time I had with Richard. I learned also from him to "don't worry about it" I miss you Richard. Just like I did the day I cried when you went off to school and I had to stay home cos I wasn't in school yet. I cried my eyes out then and I am deeply hurt now. I loved you more than you will ever know my friend. Your loving sister.

Cancer is a cruel disease that touches "so many families."  I am sorry for your loss.  Rich will be missed. Sincerely, Dick Savage
