Not sure what to say?

I was so sorry to hear of Rick's passing. I was sooo looking forward to seeing him at our next NLHS high school reunion. Rick was such a kind and thoughtful person and I really appreciated his help getting the tables all set up at our last reunion. I'll miss seeing him at our next celebration.

I am so sorry for your loss. I have many good memories shared with you guys. He will be missed.

I have many fond memories of Rick from his high school days in the 1960's. Quite simply, we lost another one of the good guys. My sincere condolences to his family. RIP Rick !

Rick was my best friend in high school. We had fun shooting together at the Quaker Hill Rod and Gun Club and for the NLHS rifle team. Also many hours cursing in my 57 Chevy. Prayers go out to his family.

Karen - Over the years, I have thought back to when Joe, Rick, the whole Engineering group and I worked at UNC. It is very understandable that Rick and Joe got along so well. Two guys with like minds. Just like a puzzle, we are missing some of the key pieces. I wish you and your family peace and fond memories. With compassion and love. Terry Geer
