In memory of Richard M. DeVos

Those leaving tributes vividly recall hearing him deliver one of his famous speeches or treasure his iconic handwritten notes signed “Love ya! Rich.” Or they were so thankful they got to shake his hand, feeling the warmth and sincerity of his greeting as he looked them in the eye. He is described as a cheerleader for the human spirit. An incredible visionary. A giant. A teacher. An ambassador. A true American hero. An ideal entrepreneur. A father figure. A motivator, dreamer and champion. The personification of humility. A philanthropist. The model of servant leadership.

只要台灣還有一位直銷商在、我們永不撤退、三十幾年前聽到老狄維士的一席話、讓我們也下定了決心要經營安麗一輩子、感恩我們不怕二的精神領袖、我們靈魂的工程師、偉大的狄維士、改變了無數人的命運、真是不捨您的離開、也祝福您在上帝的國度裡繼續領導~永遠愛您、感恩您、謝謝您~
