    It is with great sadness that I have to announce this but our dear friend Rich died last month. He had a heart attack on May 19th and left us far too soon. He would’ve been 55 on June 1st. He loved his Toyotas, guitars, and was a great friend to many of us. We will miss you @Matic

    I hate reading this. First met Rich back in 2010 at a mod day at a member's place in SC...wheeled with him at URE and a few other places after that a few times. Always a good guy, always positive...man, so unexpected and way too young.

    Condolences to family and friends.

    Working on my Tacoma with my dog giving him all the love.

    He knew my favorite soda was only sold in KY so he would always bring me some on his trips from Ohio back to SC.
