Rich has now lived in Los Angeles longer than he grew up in New York.

He's a managing director in executive search, specializing in media, entertainment, and nonprofit placements.

Married for almost 25 years, he's most proud of not screwing that up, yet.

That brings us to the end of our episode.

Thanks so much for joining us.

From all of us here at The Moth, happy Halloween, happy All Saints.

We hope you'll join us next time.

This is the Moth Radio Hour.

I'm Sarah Austin Janess.

In this episode, lost and found stories.

Heirlooms lost, old ways of life gone, and what is found in their stead.

Our curatorial producer, Suzanne Rust, found out about our first storyteller, Ross Jessup, through an article in a local Missoula, Montana newspaper, and she reached out.

Ross later told us, I thought it was a scam, and so did my lieutenant.

I told my wife about it, and she said, the moth?

It's not a scam.

Call them.

I listen all the time.

So we begin this episode lost in the woods of Lolo National Forest in Missoula, Montana, with Ross Jessup, a cop, 10 years into the police force.

He came to New York to tell his story outside in Greenwood Cemetery, so you may hear the occasional airplane.

We partner with the Greenwood Historic Fund.
