Rich walked me through their Summer Home here in Holland…. The sitting room just outside their bedroom had two chairs, a TV , a bookcase with a few souvenirs…a table between the chairs holding only a worn Bible. I knew then and have often drawn on, your parents had priorities ….. and they were in Love!

I was 18 years old and met your dad at Laurie Mulham’s house. He was sitting on the floor in the living room just chilling being a normal guy that was very interested in what we kids were up to that night. After I met him Bill Mulham asked me if I knew that was😂😂😂😂 I said no, he said that’s Amway😂

A very kind and brilliant man who always made you feel like you were special. Somehow, he would remember your name and I would always feel so good when somebody like Richard say, hi Bill how are you? Such a simple thing but so powerful. If everybody read his books, be like Rich!, 10 powerful words to say to people and his other simple and amazing powerful books, the world would be such a better place! I miss him and think of him often and hopefully my life is a reflection of what I learned from Rich DeVos and how I treat others.

Rich De Vos Siempre ha Sido mí Inspiración en mis 45 años cómo IBO 💎

I worked with your Grandma Ethel. She was a sweet lady and very down to earth. I was 19 and taught me how to use a 10 key calculator without looking. I remember her telling me one day, that she would tell your dad that he puts his pants on one leg at a time, just like everyone else.

Both families have international respect because of their vision. Millions of people in the world are thankful to them.

I have a special hand written (snail mailed) letter that Rich sent me many years ago. I have kept it all this time, and still have it. He spoke at our church one Sunday. It was outstanding. I sent him a thank you note after. I was taken aback that he took the time to send me a response. He sweetly chidded me for giving him accolades. He directed all the glory to God. His extraordinarily humble words revealed to me his love and gratitude for Jesus, recognizing his own position before God, (in spite of his obvious earthly stature). He ended with "I am just an ordinary man....saved by God's Grace." I am grateful for both of them. Their legacy lives on in the hearts and lives of so many. "Well done good and faithful servants." 🥰

I first saw RDV speak when THE AMWAY GRAND PLAZA OPENED UP...I was a 18 year kid, Grand Rapids Mi, downtown was in very bad shape. His positive speaking and energy in that room was something I never experienced before, it changed my life. Many times I served Mr and Mrs DeVos at the hotel when they hosted many friends and Family it was always a pleasure...THAT FAMILY CHANGED Grand Rapids MI GOD BLESS RICH AND HELEN.

They both were such awesome people!

What a legacy they left; their generosity is beyond compare. West Michigan was so lucky to have the DeVos and VanAndel families.

❤️Very Beautiful couple! Rich always had something amusing to say and I enjoyed listening to him speak at employee meetings. Very much admire your family! 💐

No tuve el privilegio de conocerlo, pero cada uno de sus audios y libros me han ayudado a conocer quien era Rich Devos , un hombre usado por Dios para bendecir a muchos.

Wow What a great legacy !

An absolutely amazing family! They taught my family how to have a dream.

They were a wonderful example of parents and couple.

Mr DeVos, I have an aerial photo taken in 1961 of Ada before your facility was built. It is amazing what your family’s generosity has done for West Michigan and around the world. God Bless you! Jack Smit

Loved your parents. Remarkable people. Enjoyed seeing Rich walk through the plants and at our meetings. So down to earth
