I will miss my Pal Rich so much, as I'm sure everyone that knew him will. He was the greatest guy you could ever meet and had the easiest going, most laid back attitude of anyone I have ever met. Rich was always smiling and could put a smile on anyone's face at any time no matter what the situation was. He had a heart of gold, and would give you the shirt off his back. He was a great friend, father, Medic, C.O. a HUGE BUFF, lol....and good at just about everything else too. He was just the kind of guy you couldn't say a bad word about ever. I can still see him in my mind.... cellphone attached to his ear, smoking his cigar and laughing and smiling about something.

He will be greatly missed!! My thoughts and prayers go out to his family

Rich,

I will miss you so much Brother. It was a honor to work with you all these year,and to call you a friend. I will never forget Thursday overnights & Sat Mornings in Rockland at HVA. We had alot of fun back then. You are going to be missed so much. I pray that your Children will take comfort in that you made so many friends and did so much here. Till the day we meet again, Rest In Peace. You have done your job here on Earth. God has one heck of a EMS System in Heaven with Tommy S, John M, Matt. L & You.

Rich was the 1st AEMTI I had known when working at Hudson Valley Amb. Some of the stories a bunch of us could talk about then. As all of you know, if you need help he was right there. A partner of mine had calapsed a few years ago here in Dutchess. As I called for help on 911 & before 911 could dispatch. I heard over the radio, " Ill be right there Tommy!" There was Quig, pulling in his bus next to mine......... There was so many other stories that we all have. We have all lost a Great Friend, Paramedic, DSCO, & Fireman. I pray We all look out for his Children & each other.

I also want to talk this moment to Thank the Crews that work Our Good Friend. We All thank you for the task that You did last night for One Of Our Own.

I am Glad You where their for Rich. God Bless You All!

[celticmedic643 2]

Wow. I was in Shock last night when I got the phone call. But like 32 said I start to smile when I think of Rich with the cell phone, cigar and always a smile. I'm glad I ran into Rich a couple of weeks ago and caught up. And Buff is not the word. Class A guy. Rich you will truly be missed by all who knew you. Til we ride again...............
