So sorry to hear this news. I shouldn't really say what I remember most about you here on this page ;-) but I have carried you and your family with me through my life. I wish I had known you when we were older. I saw you on the freeway from time to time. My condolences to your family. Like has already been said, I won't forget you. RIP Rick
so sorry . Laurie McClain

Rick was my favorite crew member back in 1992 building Jim Mcbrides hydroplane. He was always smiling and had an upbeat attitude. I'm sad that he's gone and I'm sad that he went through so much misery after his accident.

I love you my Brother, forever. I am so sad you had to go. Our only solace is that you are no longer in pain. I know Glenn, Dad, Uncle Bob, Cousin Dave...many were there to welcome you . I'll be feeling you watching over me until we meet again.
