My best memory of Richie was his dunking a basketball In a game. It was the 1st time I saw a BF player do that. He was truly one of a kind, and had wonderful smile.
My heart goes out to Joyce, Randy and Rodney.
God bless

I've known and worked with Rich over 30 years and what a great guy. He is up in heaven listening to the Hawkeyes and getting ready to go on a bike ride. God bless the Pruismann family.

Thinking of you Joyce, Randy, & family. Rich was a great guy. I have thought back the last few days of many memories during our many rides & ragbrai. Those memories will always bring comfort. Hoping you too find comfort in your many memories.

Condolences to Richs family. I know from many early morning conversations at work how much his family meant to him. Rich was a rock when it came to his job. He was always ten steps ahead of the game. His customers and fellow employees alike will miss him. Family, friends, or work, Rich was always willing to lend a helping hand and give his best.
