It was a great pleasure working with Rick as a fellow bus driver. We enjoyed the lunches we had at the Peking in South St. Paul.
May the Lord Bless his family during this time of loss.

My wife and i have known Rick and Sally since we moved in next door in 1989. We enjoyed many good times on each others deck having cocktails and talking. Rick and I would always compete and see who would cut the grass the first. Rick usually won.The only game I usually won with him was golf. Rick will be missed greatly. May the LORD grant him eternal peace and give his wife and many family members comfort.
