Richard E. Koss loved life, enjoyed people, good food and good stories. He walked Yellowstone National Park on a llama trek and, at the age of 60 and 72, hiked in and out of the Grand Canyon on the Bright Angel Trail. He never met a dog he didn’t like.

The family will have a private memorial service in Rochester. He will be greatly missed. Arrangements by Bring’s Broadway Chapel, bringfuneralhome.com, Tucson, Ariz.
