In our lives, we come together as families in many different ways. We have our related families, we connect with our church families, and we have our school and work families. Some become family by meeting and spending time together. Playing golf made us become family. Our family maybe small, but we hold a strong bond to each other.
There comes a time when we must say see you later to our family members as God calls them home. Our family has lost some members, but we will keep them in our memories and hearts.

Richard Alan Koch, 72, of Louisville, Kentucky, passed on June 27, 2024. Rick was born on August 3, 1951, to William and Joyce Koch. Rick went on to live a beautiful life, filled with fond family moments and lots of love.
Rick met the love of his life, Rebecca Koch (Vogt), in a serendipitous way at The Pancake House, and their adventures continued for 47 years. Through the years, Rick spent his life dedicated to his family – boating, camping, golfing, fishing, and especially loved teaching his grandsons life lessons. Rick was a proud Navy Veteran, like his father, and loved telling tales of his submarine days. Many likely remember his “famous” story of breaking through ice at the North Pole. After retiring from Graft-Pelle Co. in 2019, Rick enjoyed extra Papa time to his grandsons. We will always remember Rick for his zeal for life and caring heart.
