I was heartbroken to hear about Rick’s passing. It’s hard to put into words what he meant to me and to so many others here on the island.
I first met Rick through our next-door neighbor, Don—his very best friend. Watching the way Rick showed up for Don taught me so much about loyalty and true friendship. He was steady, devoted, and present in a way that is rare. After Don’s passing, Rick continued to be a part of my life, becoming our grass cutter for all of our beach properties...

What a sweet person Rick was. We go back many years working at the restaurants in Kure Beach. He always had a beautiful smile and was always telling me a joke. So glad I ran into him within the last year in Oceanview. He looked great, still smiling. Very sad to hear of his passing. R.I.P. Rick will see you again some day.

To the family- There is strength in God's peace. I (as well as many others) have good memories of working with Rick in the food service industry. I also remember how he helped friends in need. He will be missed.

I've known Ricky for quite a few years, he was such a nice man. He helped me with a couple of projects at my house and he had a great work ethic. Rick will be missed by many friends at the beach. RIP
