I remember stopping to visit you and Penny with the kids. Always a good visit. I know you're watching over your children. You must be so proud of Jennifer and I'm sure of Ricky and his family. I don't know how Penny does it or when she gets her strength but I'm sure it comes from you and GOD. Keep watching over them. I miss you say hi to my dad and sister?

Just heard about the sad news today. I feel awful. I had the privilege of working for Rick for six summers at the parks. Rick was a great boss who would always loved to have a laugh and made working with him a pleasure. He cared for me more than any other boss i ever have had in my life. I am so happy that i got to see him on my wedding day, because of course he promised he would be there.
Rest in peace Rick. You're in my prayers.

You're in my thoughts and prayers. Work will never be the same and so many of us will remember how determined Rick was to keep going. He was an inspiration to our work family and will be sorely missed. May the love and comfort of your family and friends help you through this most difficult time.

Rick will always be remembered for the great man he was. He was always good to my dad when he was sick. I think Rick is the first person outside of family that he told and didn't even tell him how sick he really was. My thoughts and prayers are with you now and forever to you Penny, especially and to your children, Ricky and Jennifer.
