Not sure what to say?

Just does not seem like 3 years. Expect to get a call to touch base and see how everything is going. Miss him alot.

We still have trouble realizing that you have moved on to wait for us. Jeff and i really missed you up north this hunting season.

The service was a very special tribute not only to Rick, but your entire family. Always treasure memories.

May God hold you all tightly for a while. Rick was the guy who always had a smile. Nothing can ease your pain right now, but Jeff and I hope that all the messages and prayers will lift your spirits and and get you through this very hard time. With your family and friends around you, the healing will happen. God bless you, Sheila, and your family.

As the days and weeks pass, and as you return to life's routine, may you continue to feel comforted by the love and support of family and friends.

We were sorry to hear about Ricks passing, he was always so happy when we saw him at the Corvette corrals!
Even though it's never enough, please know that Diezel and I send our heartfelt condolences to you Shelia and your family. May the Love of all your family and friends surround you during this time.

Rick was the kindest man that my husband I have ever met. We would see one another at Corvette Racing events. When, my husband became paralyzed, Rick would take him on a race shuttle to see various sites on the track. I think he bonked his head a dozen times getting my husband on/off the shuttle. God better be catching up on his racing data. Love to Sheila, Beth, Eric, and the grandkids. He was proud and loved you all.

Sheila & family, We were sad to hear the news about Rick. Our club has lost a wonderful member & friend. May many happy memories help your family at this time.

Sheila, we always enjoyed seeing Rick and you. He had such enthusiasm for Corvettes and a kind heart for everyone. We were privileged to call him friend. Sending love to you and your family.
