Dear Aunt Celine and Warchol cousins,
Heartfelt sympathy. Though years, and careers, and circumstances have taken us miles apart, some childhood memories are etched in our hearts forever. Uncle Richie---his laugh was contagious and his kind heart always welcoming . As children, when Mom and Dad spoke in code about going "to Wagner Street", we would delight at the prospect of going to visit Aunt Celine , Uncle Rich and to hang with the cousin's. As for Thanksgiving Day parades: cousins seated on the chilling curbside of Woodward Avenue, Uncle Richie---flask in hand---keeping a watchful eye. This profound scene stands out more in my mind than Santa Claus coming down Woidward! Precious memories live on forever. May your special memories help to console and comfort all of you. My deepest condolences. Love, Judy Kozak Zepeda

Oh that Uncle Rich...or “Worchol”as our folks used to call him.
A finely-tuned mind, strategic business instincts, dry sense of humor, and the best secret sauce horseradish recipe in the Midwest!
He defined what an extended family business was by employing in-laws, outlaws, nieces and nephews in the Vacumet enterprise, giving them weekend and part time work and boosting their annual earning power.
Uncle Rich and Aunt Celine made it a point to trek all over Wayne Oakland and Macomb counties like Good Samaritans visiting relatives and depositing priceless memories along the way. He is one of the last of the greatest generation. And has a truly special place in a loving chamber of my heart. I would have been there to say goodbye to him personally and hug the family, but I just learned of his passing today.
With so much respect,
Susan
