Rich was a licensed welder, millwright, and maintenance worker who worked at various companies throughout the years including Boyertown Foundry, Firestone, Dana Corporation, Campbell Lee, Life Quest, and last worked at Tower Health Pottstown, PA. He volunteered for many years with the Salvation Army Service Canteen Unit in Boyertown, was a life member at Friendship Hook and Ladder in Boyertown, and a member at Three Pines hunting camp in Potter County Pa
He had a great love for the outdoors especially hunting and fishing, and looked forward to going to hunting camp in Potter County every year with family and friends. He loved to joke, easily made friends everywhere he went, and would drop everything to help anyone anytime. He loved going on Cruises, going out to eat, riding motorcycle, and grilling. He adored his family, and loved spoiling the grandkids. He will be greatly missed ❤
 
Per Rich’s request there will be no funeral, nor special services. The family will be holding a celebration of life for him possibly in April. We will be sharing details of a more specific date in the upcoming weeks for those interested in attending. “
