We are both shocked and saddened by the loss of a terrific guy. We at Reach for the Rainbow had the pleasure of working alongside Rick for many enjoyable years. Always a gentleman, I so admired his interaction with people. Always kind and thoughtful. Our heartfelt condolences to all of his family. Indeed a life cut too short.

Dear Judy and family, We were so sorry to hear of Rick's passing. Herb was extremely fond of him and if he could speak or write, he would tell you of the many happy times spent fishing in the Charlottes or golfing wherever they found a course to challenge. Herb always said you could tell a man's character by fishing with him or playing golf with him and Rick was the best. We hope that you find comfort in knowing that Rick was so well respected and thought of both professionally and personally. With our deepest sympathy,

I am so sorry to see that Richard has passed. He was one of my best friends for 5 years in high school. I remember his quick wit the most and a day when we played soccer as a small group in High Park. We lost touch after high school when everyone went their separate ways but I always will remember him.
