It's sad whenever someone loses a loved one, especially a parent...
But Damn, I can't speak for anyone else, but I Especially hate it when it's a good person who goes through the loss.
PRoyers for Rich and his family

If its none of your buisness and irelevant to you, just dont post on a thread about it dude, people are trying to show respect, not go round telling everybody else its none of their buisness.

Just ignore the post then. We don't need YOUR opinion. Rich is a nice guy and he's lost a parent. I'm sure he would be touched to see people showing remorse for him at this sad time. We're hardly invading his privacy!!
