As we will not be able to attend the Visitation for Rick, Pat and I want to extend our condolences to Christine and his family. Rick and I were colleagues at Walnut Hills as members of the Mathematics Department for many years. He was such a gracious man and a truly accomplished educator. He touched the lives of so many people in such a wonderful way.
For Mike, Tom, Joe, and Ed...your father was the greatest. Remember the good times!

Rick was a wonderful guy. We had so many good times together during high school at St. X, often going to the same parties and events. I was a frequent visitor at his house in Wyoming and loved his mother. I was so happy to read that he led a life of accomplishment and generosity.

Paul and Anne, I am so sorry to hear about Rick's death. You were so fond of each other. I knew him better in high school! He was always having a good time.

I am inspired to learn of Rick's lifelong service to communities in both North and South America. He exemplifies the core value of St. Xavier High School and I am proud to be able to say I was his classmate. All the best to Rick's family, most especially his wife, children and multiple grandchildren at a very sad time of life.

May God bless you and your family in this time of sorrow. I'm glad I was able to share the time we had at Saint Xavier.
