Stephen Raich is my brother. He is 7 years older than me, so I was about 12 years old when he was drafted into the Vietnam war. I have always looked upon him as someone who always seemed bigger than life, whether it was him completing his service in the army and surviving Vietnam or his entrepreneurial skills at building his own automotive repair business after he was released from the army or driving hydroplane racing boats for fun or racing formula open wheel cars on the track, he always wanted to live life to its fullest. It is still difficult to believe that he has passed away since it seemed that he would live forever. I know that my family and I will miss him very much. May God keep you in his comfort always and until we meet again. Charles S. Raich.
