I saw him at my mother's retirement party last year still smiling and sincere. My thoughts are with Kate, Jonathan, and Joan and I send my deepest sympathy.

I feel very lucky to have had the chance to work with Rick and to get to know him as a friend. He had a very generous heart and positive attitude about life. My most sincere condolences to his family. David Telep, former Rexam colleague.

Rick was a gentleman and a gentle man. I enjoyed working with him at Graphics and I'm grateful I got to see him about 18 months ago. He always had a great outlook, no matter what life threw at him. My deepest sympathies to his family.

I am very sorry to hear about Rick and my condolences to all of his family. He was always a gentleman, and a very hard working and sincere guy while working at "Graphics" in South Hadley.

Our sincerest spympathy to Jonathon and Katie on your Dad's passing. We knew him for the 22 yrs he lived in Blandford. Rick volunteered many hours to town affairs in Blandford. He always had a smile on his face and always uttered kind words.
We hope only happy memories will keep a smile on your faces whenever you think of him.

I am saddened to hear of Rick's passing.
He was a very nice and kind man. I worked with him at Research (Rexam Graphics) several years ago.

Rick will be sorely missed. We all learned a lot about how to live our lives by watching how Rick lived his. Fibermark was a better place because of Rick Taylor.
