When the Nothwood gang showed up in Parchment, he met Lani and we all made life long friends also.
Rick was my friend before Parchment, in Northwood. He was a warm and friendly person all the time, no exceptions. My condolences to the family. I will miss him at the next reunion.

Rick truly was one of the best guys and neighbor I ever had.

Our sympathies Loni and family. What a great guy who served Parchment well.
