Dear Sydney...
Thank you for getting me in contact with Ricky before his death. We had not seen or heard from each other since 1962. When I spoke with him his voice sounded so strong so it came as a bit of surprise that he passed away so quickly after that.

I know that Richard Tidovsky was also so glad that they were able to talk one last time.

Ricky and I worked at the Big Chain grocery all through high school. I think that Richard did as well but he may have worked at a...

Dear Sydney,

I just heard about Rick. I am so sorry. He was a great guy. Take care and God Bless.

Dear Sydney, Cindy, and Karen
I am sorry to hear of the loss of Mr. Brown. He was always very kind to me and I have very fond memories of him from Huffman Circle.

Sydney-
As I read through the many comments being left by co-workers, friends, and family in remembrance of your beloved Ricky, it really reinforces what a wonderful person he was, how much he was loved and how much he will be missed. I am privileged to have been able to call him my friend. I will always cherish the special times I shared with you and Rick, but especially my last visit to California this past November.

We were truly sorry to hear of Rick's passing. We both remember him as a friend, a work colleague at Sohio/BP and as an occasional golfing buddy. Our thoughts and prayers are with you at this sad time.

My Sweet Friend, Sydney,

I am so saddened by the loss of your wonderful Ricky.

And I am happy that you and Rick loved each other JOYFULLY and COMPLETELY! You didn't wait for someday...you were busy making memories, having fun, and enjoying life and each other to the fullest from the very beginning. Many people never taste of that special love that comes when two people love each other so unconditionally.

Rick was so sweet and kind, and I can still see his smile as he...

We want to thank everyone for their kind words and memories of my dad (Grandpa Rick). It is comforting to read the specific things that he touched each one of your lives with. I also know each of you touched my dad's life just as much.
May God give us the strength and peace, as we remember and cherish the good memories Grandpa Rick left with us.
Thank you all for being part of his life.

Sydney,

I was saddened and shocked to learn of Rick's passing. I always thought of the two of you as the perfect couple. I remember how happy you were when you left for retirement in California. I'm honored to have worked with both of you at the Anchoage BP HQ office. Our thoughts and prayers are with you, Sydney.

I was saddened when I read of Rick's death. My sympathy and prayers are with you.
