It is hard to comprehend that someone that enjoyed life as much as Richie did has now left us for the arms of God. I will never forget his pure joy, or his infectious laugh. He had a zest for life that you could feel the minute he walked into a room. Many fun evenings were shared between our families over the time since Richie married Christina. Some of our very fondest memories of Florida involved the Momtpeller family, and I can’t imagine life without Richie. God bless you dear friend and hold you as we wish we still could. Our loss is so great, that it is barely bearable. We will take care of your dear Christina, and do our best to ensure that she has the support and love she needs to go on without you.
