Rich was a former member of Western Hills Church of Christ and Liverpool Christian Church where he served as an elder in both churches. He was a former avid bowler, having won Bowling for Dollars and was crowned “King of the Hill.” Rich enjoyed golfing, cooking, interior and exterior painting with his brother-in-law, Bob and was an avid NY Yankees fan. Above all, he loved spending time with his family, especially when they were together at their family camp in Sylvan Beach.
