Rich was my best friend. I miss him every day. I truly took him for granted and wish I had few seconds to just tell him I love him like a brother. Fucked up shit hurts when u have someone mentally being in your life forever and then the next he gone without any warning. He was a cool ass person . He was very smart, funny, and he helped me alot in life . He is and will be truly missed for all my remaining days here. Love u rich. RIP my bro
