After his service, Rich went on to work for the State of New Jersey for over 35 years, first in the labor office and then in the accounting and treasury department, until his retirement in 2014. In his free time, he liked going around town and making friends with anyone who crossed his path, he could always put a smile on your face. He loved spending time with his granddaughters and watching his beloved Cardinals’ teams play during football and baseball seasons. Rich loved trains, sorting pennies, following the weather and supporting our brave firefighters. He also loved taking trips to Vermont with his family.
