Beulah Evelyn Rich Newcombe 1891-1965, buried at Forest View Cemetery, Winsted, CT
Stanley Delmont Rich 1892-1966 - Madison, Maine
Leah Agnes Rich Hubert 1894-1966 - Plymouth, New Hampshire
Carroll Erving Rich 1899-1959 - Lowell, Massachusetts

While his obituary says he was 85, at the time of his passing, all other records indicate he was 62.

The following information is provided by his great granddaughter, Liz Beyus: "Charles got a case of influenza in CA 2 years earlier that did a good deal of damage to his heart. Based on the article and the death certificate I have - he likely had an aneurysm that burst - he dropped, hitting his head. He was probably already gone when he landed."

His granddaughter, Virginia felt it would be a good thing to have a marker installed in the Memorial Garden to honor his life and his death.
