nw baltimore wx Posted October 14, 2014 Share Posted October 14, 2014 Very sad. It sounds like he's been battling illness for awhile? I can't offer a lot, but if there's any fund set up in his name, I'd like to know about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J.Mike Posted October 14, 2014 Share Posted October 14, 2014 Never met Rich, but I appreciated how loved he was here, and I loved his passionate posts. Wherever he goes from this life, I know it will be warm and toasty, with palm trees and a beautiful beach. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amped Posted October 14, 2014 Share Posted October 14, 2014 Damn that sucks. Met him a couple of times at the conference, was a cool guy with some health issues. I thought he was older though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wxmeddler Posted October 15, 2014 Share Posted October 15, 2014 Well damn. I was always enamored about Rich's character, knowledge, and complete perseverance. It seemed that nothing could hold him down and was always looking to the bright side of life. I always looked forward to seeing him at the conferences and his ability to lighten the atmosphere with merely his presence. RIP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
