    Chris,  I am so sorry for your loss.  You certainly have had a tough time lately and my heart hurts for you.   I always loved seeing Rich. He always made me laugh.  One of the last times we talked he said he was waiting on his Uber (you) to pick him up.  You could always tell how much he loved his family. Hope your memories help to keep you strong going through this.Kathy Bodo

    Mrs. Sklenar I was sorry to hear of Mr. Sklenar passing. He was such a great help with Special Olympics when we would go away. He always had us laughing and I really enjoyed the six pack he gave me. Keeping you and Tim in my prayers.
