Richard Specht
Sound Beach, New York, United States
Co-Founder of the ReesSpecht Life Foundation
RICH SPECHT and his wife, Samantha, are the co-founders of the ReesSpecht Life Foundation. The foundation was formed in the wake of the drowning death of their only son, Richard Edwin-Ehmer (Rees) Specht, at 22 months old. The acts of kindness that his family received after Rees’ passing inspired them to “pay it forward” with the worldwide distribution of over 800,000 ReesSpecht Life “pay it forward” cards and counting.
