Tom was many things to many people. He was a loving husband and father. He was a valued friend, teacher and an amazing dog trainer. He had a profound talent that could never be duplicated. Tom had overcome many obstacles in his life and truly inspired those around him. He will be missed terribly by his family, friends, colleagues, clients and four legged friends.

Losing Tom is a tragedy especially for any of us who love dogs; he was a wonderful trainer and a wonderful man. I can’t imagine stopping by Snug and not being able to talk with him about my puppy problems or just to say “Hi, how’s the family?”
My sincerest condolences to Kristi, the children and everyone at Snug.

An Exceptional Man and Exceptional Talent. One would never know he was hindered by any disability, in fact our family was shocked to learn that he was legally blind. Some are taken from us much to early in life. May Tom Riche rest in peace and may solace come to his family. He will be missed.

I am so sorry to hear about Tom. He was a great guy and fun to work with. He came to the house to help train us to train our two out of control fighting dogs – Bianca and Harley. Our thoughts and prayers are with him and all of you. We wish his family the best.
