I was Rich's roommate when he passed this summer. I lost my best friend that day. He truly did love the Hodag and everyone there. We were both virgins the year he had the Speedos going. He'll be greatly missed by many, but I guarantee he'll be there every year. You may not see him, but he'll be there. Keep your eyes peeled for a special tribute to "The American Dream" in 2003.

Take care everyone. See ya next summer.
