“I’m so saddened to hear about Rich’s passing. He was the first neighbor I met in the building — I still remember him stopping me to hand me his funny retirement business card. He was always so friendly and kind. I’ll miss seeing him in the hallway and hearing his jokes. Sending love to his family and loved ones.”
