Condolence: Rich was a great friend to my father and that really showed after my father passed away and he continued to be a great friend to my family. That is how I will remember Rich a great friend with a great personality who always had a great big smile on his face especially when he was behind the mic at my dads ( hugy) house. I will miss him, and all of his stories, his jokes, his music knowledge, and him singing with the Del Roomies. I am very sorry for your loss and you are in my thoughts and prayers at this difficult time.

Condolence: Richie was a wonderful friend of mine who made a difference in my life. It will be the small, everyday occurrences that I will remember most: the laughs, the stories, the smiles. Although it might seem like the pain will never go away, it is these very memories that will help push the sorrow away and bring back happier feelings, in time. All the times we spent together in the tow truck you taught me so much about cars, drag racing and life in general. My deepest condolences to your family. Till we meet again, take care my brother. 442's forever.

Condolence: Vincent, Deanna, Alaina, Melissa , I am so sorry for the heartfelt loss of your, dear Father. He was truly a loving, caring man and one of honor. I have special memories of the old days, when life was so simple. Coming back from the shore in his 442 with him & your beautiful mother, Terri, my friend for life...as we all sang to The Isley Brothers (This Old Heart of Mine),that remained a special song, through the years. Always sending it out to me at all the great parties, to make me feel special, as Mom & I would hit the dance floor.. Most of all he gave me a special gift..when he introduced me to, "THE MICKSTER", as he called him, my dear husband. He also picked our Wedding Song & played it, so long ago. It was him who came to my house, when we loss Mick, with his soft caring words & called to see how the girls & I were doing... I am honored,to have been a part of watching you grow up ,and become a true reflection of your beautiful parents. He will always be in ,"this old heart of mine". May he rest in peace with his friend, Mick. May your pain subside in the memories that are your treasures. Love, Trish
