Dear Ross Family,
As a colleague on the Wilkes Board, Rick was a source of experience and careful guidance. As a friend I gained great knowledge from his perspective. Always with a cheerful but serious manner, he was generous with his time and support. The value of his vast knowledge will be greatly missed. My sincere condolences to Kim and your family.

Dear Kim,
Jane and I send our condolences to you on Rick's death. He was not only a wonderful, spirited friend; he was also a great boss during his term as Chairman of the Board of Wilkes University. His devotion to Wilkes was a constant source of support for me, from our first dinner at your lovely home in 1983 to our farewell in 2001. Our times together in Key West were particularly memorable. May such memories be a source of support in the difficult days ahead.
