Richard and Barbara moved from Philadelphia to Chalfont in 1971 where they raised their family and resided for 51 years before moving to Doylestown. Rich served in the military, graduated from Central High School and went on to gain his Master of Science degree in engineering. He had a long career in research and development as an electrical engineer for government agencies in both classified and unclassified projects.
