RICHARD P. BENOVIC

Dad,
I am so heart broken words cannot desribe how I fill. I LOVE AND WILL MISS YOU . NO one could have asked for a better DAD!
Love your son,
Miles

Thank you for being such a great father to me. I will never forget how much you helped me, how you spent time to teach me how to drive, got me my first job, car... and you were always there for me everytime I needed you. Inside your tough body you had such a kind heart, and I loved seeing how much you cared about any animal that passed by the house and how deeply you loved your friends and family. You always made sure you were very affectionate and you never forgot your cam-recorder in...

I am sorry for your loss. He surely is in a better place, with our Lord.

I just wanted to tell the friends and family of Rick how much he will be missed. I was really shocked to see my friends face on the news when I came back from out of town this past weekend. He was a great father. All he ever talked about was his kids! I met Rick back in 1991 or 1992 and he was at the pool at our apts. with Miles and I thought at that time how neat it was to see a dad show his son so much attention and have so many patience. The family and the children will be in my prayers ....

My memories of growing up in Columbia Station are some of the sweetest. Rick will always be a part of those long ago summer days when we would all hang out together. Our group for the most part was Rick, renee(me),Karen,Ferne,Bobby and Kenny (sometimes others). Some days we walked to the neighborhood store and devoured slim jims, Thompson chips and pepsi-Rick had Dr. Pepper (his favorite). Other times we sat on the bridge,talked,laughed and smoked cigarettes. (Bad Habit) Wether we were...
