my condolences to the family of KC Jones....he will be sadly missed by his ES family.... Storms

Rich had such an easy-going attitude. I will miss him on our trail rides and get-togethers. He was alway willing and ready to help others whenever he could. He will be missed. My prayers and thoughts go out to his family during this time of sadness. Shannon

The measure of a man is what he is (not what he owns) and the positive impact he makes on others. Rich, you were a Top Hand. You will be missed. Til we meet again..

Saddened by this tremoundously, he was a Great Man.. Prayers are with family and friends.. ride on in heaven.. Karen

Oh! you are so right Vicky. We just never know when our last days on earth will be. It really makes me re-evaluate my life. We have lost so many of our ES friends lately. They must be having quite a trail ride up there! My condolences to the family. Redlandgal
