Frederick Warner III

I took an acting class from Rick in the '80's. One thing I rember most was him telling us not to pretend to be a character but to "become" that character. He was a fine actor & a kind & wonderful human being. He will be greatly missed.

I first met Rick around 1987. I was new in town and it was my first local commercial gig. Rick popped out of a washing machine. I was the startled housewife. Every take was different, all goofy, and I thought, why isn´t somebody directing him? But that´s why you hired Rick Warner. You didn´t direct him. You just put him in a washing machine, pointed him toward the camera and said go. He was and remained a lovable character. Catch you on the flipside, Rick. Give Mark Joy a big hug for me.

Great actor, friend and a great sense of humor, obviously.

Rick was always a fierce individual and bright star (literally!) He never heard (or forgot) a joke he didn't like and reminded you even many years later of something funny you said or did. It was his way of letting you know that you had a place in his heart and were a unique ornament on his tree of life. It was an honor that came at seemingly random times but often just when you needed it most. I will keep his spirit in my prayers and wish him a peaceful transition to whatever adventure...

Sincere condolences, Theo, to you and your family. I met Rick, who was my husband Alex's buddy, back in 1995. We liked each other immediately. He was kind, considerate, and lots of fun. We three, and sometimes four when Rick brought a lady friend with him, had many enjoyable adventures, including spending several Thanksgiving weekends in Cutchogue. He was so proud of his son Theo and after meeting him we understood why. The many wonderful memories will keep Rick in my heart forever. RIP, dear...
