“My condolences to the Lockwood Family. Rich has been a great influence in my life. He was patience and generous leader that given his time in mentoring and assisting me during my staff time at the 60th Ordnance Group when I worked for him in Zweibrucken, Germany. Rich had a way of working well with the people that serviced over him, with him, and especially the ones like me who were under him. He was a great friend and a great man.”
