February 20, 2022 at 2:04 amSo saddened to hear of Rich’s passage. I had the pleasure of working with Rich many years at Mars. He always brought an intense passion to his responsibilities and human caring along with it. Because of the love of his family and faith in God he was able to weather the many storms at Mars. He produced 10x the output vs his salary. We’ll miss him him as a person and a work mate that brought meaning to life.
