    Rich & I pal'd around in high school & college, until I was drafted into the army & sent away. By the time I got back home he had moved on to Idaho.

    I have many fond memories of Rich and his young family from my childhood. I remember Rich and my dad (Dave Eagy) were great friends and we would all go stay at the coast together for vacation.
