Rick and I worked together, and made a very good team. I learned so much from him. Not only in what a good cop is, but what makes a man a good man. He was very kind to all people, very respectful, and his work ethics were unquestionable. He was a great father and loved his family. He was my brother. How great it was every time he showed up or we got together. I miss him very much.

I knew Ricky as one of the kids in our Novato neighborhood, and also as his babysitter. He was a sweet, funny boy with a big heart and a kind soul. I had not seen him since he was a kid. Today, at his service, after listening to his family, friends and those he worked with share thoughts and memories of him, I realized he had not changed over all these years - still sweet, funny, big-hearted and kind.

Take care my brother .
Rest in peace.
It was a pleasure working with you at Co A. In the 1980's.
I remember giving your family a baby crib as you needed it for your first born child .
We got to work together again at the Airport for a short time.
All of a sudden you left. I retired and 3 years later I hear the bad news.
You will be sorley missed my friend.

I was very saddened hearing about Rick. Rick and I were in the Academy together and were friends for a long long time. Every time I saw Rick he was always smiling and his hair "Looked Marvelous"
This is a difficult time but I hope it helps to say Rick made a difference and cared. He was a good guy.
I will keep Rick and your family in my prayers .
God bless
