Condolence: I thank God for leading me to the Desrocher Family - everyone of you has been a blessing; and to you Rich, we shared so much in so little time, and until we meet again -you are "Always on my Mind". Thank you for being "you" but I'm afraid you still have some work to do to make me an Italian !!

Condolence: He was a great guy and had a wonderful sense of humour. To me he was Meatball, totally unique, special and a great On-line friend. He will be sadly missed but never forgotten. "Thanks for the memories Meatball - we never did get round to our 50th On-Line Chatroom wedding, well maybe in the next life." Your friend Ravy01

Condolence: How quickly life goes by. I haven't seen Rich since high school, from the sounds of the guest book entries Rich remained a beautiful person. God bless you Rich!

Condolence: my sympathies to the family.
I met Rich several years ago on chat,he was a riot. We shared some rough times and some good times. He was my bad little brother.
rest in peace Rich

Condolence: My deepest sympathy to you all. I met Rich through a chat room and we used to have such a ball with his wit and sometimes even charm. He was a delight to know and he became a very cherished friend over the years. He brought a lot of joy and love to us all and he touched many lives in this part of the world.
God Bless you all. Barbara (New Zealand)

Condolence: Over the years and they have been a few grew to love the cheeky cherry meatball as he was known to his chat friends will miss terribly. My condolences to his family. Watch out for the gravy meat. RIP

Condolence: Rich will forever hold a special place in my heart. Our precious friendship unfortunately felt like that of a lifetime condensed into the past eight years. His beautiful calm voice,his sincerity and his wity sense of humor always lifted my spirits by adding brightness and joy to my life. Rich was a rentless jokester and we would often be prey to each each others humorous barbing.Rich truly touched and tickled my inner heart. He always revealed his great love for his mom,brother and sisters,telling me numerous times I would have loved them also. I would often think what a nice tribute it is to a family that a son would openly offer such praise and love about them. Rich was certainly a beautiful person to know and I will miss him and love him forever. May God bless you Rich.Liz
