As a classmate of Rich at NHRHS-1975, I send my deepest sympathy about your Mom's passing. I only met her once a year ago, when my friend was renting next door, and she was a very nice person. I'm sure she was proud of all her children and grandchildren from all the pictures she had around. Im sure she was proud not only of all her family's accomplishements, but proud knowing they always were, and always will be good persons. May she rest in peace. Again, my sympathy.---------------------Sincerly, Christopher V. Sakos
