Richie Zmuda is our beloved son, brother, grandson, nephew, and friend. He played basketball and football at Downers Grove North High School. Richie was not only an incredible athlete, but he had a work ethic that could tackle any obstacle that he set his mind to. For all those who know and love Richie, we know that he had a zest and passion for life and lived it to the absolute fullest. He could fill any room with laughter and he always knew that his infectious smile and grace with words could get him out of any sort of trouble. Rich truly played by his own set of rules. 

This fund is created in order to help Richie's family with the funeral costs (funeral will take place between March 12-14).

He leaves behind 2 loving parents, 4 brothers,  and a baby sister who is due in early April.

Thank you for your consideration. Knowing that we have all this support from our family and friends has been so encouraging during this difficult time.
