Rich did move to another high school to finish his education. I remember he came up to our reunion one year. I can't remember which year, but it was the one where we had the Friday night party at our house in Brace Canyon and the Sunday picnic at Brace Park. R.I.P. my friend.

Bless his soul. Wonderful memories. <3 br="">
Rich loved the Lord.
Thanks to Dona Foy Porcaro Bruckner for getting us all together years back.

I ran with Rich for about 4 years. He was a natural leader and a great friend. He was always happy and ready to have a good time. I'm glad he was surrounded by his children and grandchildren in his last days. His daughter words were a great tribute to Rich. Besides being a loving father she said he was the only person she new that spent time at the South Pole and the North Pole. He loved adventure even back in High School. He was the leader he made the plans for every weekend. The last time I saw Rich he was driving from Idaho to LA for his work. He stayed overnight in Las Vegas and called me and I met him at the hotel he was staying at and we had a great time. RIP Rich a life well lived.
