He was predeceased by: his parents, Howard E. Boettcher and Lorraine A. Boettcher (Robinson); and his sister Pamela Pechulis (Boettcher). He is survived by: his wife Dolores Boettcher (Robichaud); his son Thomas H. Boettcher (Jennifer); his granddaughters, Cassandra and Sydney of Wakefield, MA; his daughter April L.

Rich was strongly against the idea of flowers being sent following his death and has requested there be no flowers because those flowers will die and cannot bring continued growth. He was adamant that good come from his passing and has asked in lieu of flowers that donations are made to either the MishStrong Foundation at http://www.mishstrong.org or the APCO Sunshine Fund at https://www.apcointl.org.
