Recently lost a member of the FocusCFO® family, and a friend. Rich was the first CFO I personally recruited to be part of our team. While I only knew Rich for a few 'calendar years', he was one of those people who quickly embraced you as a longtime friend. He was one of those special people. But I didn't appreciate fully how special he was until I asked the three clients we had together to contribute a few of their thoughts to this tribute. With each submission I got more choked up. I cannot think of a better tribute to our friend Rich than, in their words, the impact he had on them. Read for yourself, please. While taken way too soon. I cherish and will celebrate forever the time I got to spend working with him. A fullness of life, regardless of the number of calendar years. My love to the LaValla family.
