Not sure what to say?

Debbie and family,
We were so sorry to hear of Rick's passing. The Duffield family send their sympathy and prayers

Debi, Allison and Katie, Brent and I are so very sad to hear of Rick's passing. He was truly a wonderful person to know during our years at TCC. We lost Sandy 11/2 years ago and we know that he and Rick are standing in the presence of our Lord. Our sincere sympathy. Joan and Brent Rogers

Hard to believe that a month has passed since we lost a very special person.Rick was such a gentleman with such a gift of caring for others both at work and at his favourite job...taking care of his girls and being the best "Pops" possible!I was privileged to have known him and my prayers are with you.

I'm so sorry for your loss. Rick was such an amazing person. He really did positively influence the lives of so very many people. He touched the hearts of many. I will treasure my memories I have of him from my years at reunion, senior high camp, and SPEC. He gave so much of himself to others that in a way he lives on through that, though that doesn't make the loss any easier. He will be greatly missed by many, including me. My condolences to his family and close friends. I will keep you all...

Love you Debi and Rick! So happy we have spent the years of friendship, travel and golf. What an awesome guy! He will forever be remembered with love and laughs. The Oasis Golf Club Members send their love from Mesquite, NV. Every time we have Chicken Fried Steak we will honor Rick, his favorite meal at the club. Love to your family and hopefully soon your sadness will be full of wonderful memories. Love Mike and Darlene

Offering our deepest condolences during this difficult time.

My deepest condolences to Deb, Allison, Katie and the entire Taylor Family: I have many fond memories of Rick, too many to mention here. What I remember most was his dedication and commitment to his family first and foremost. It was an honor to be his friend, to be mentored by him, work with him and teach ACLS with him. I miss you Rick!

Rick will forever be remembered by myself and my kids as 'Pops'. We had the pleasure of knowing Pops over the last five or so years, via his daughter Katie. It was incredible how kids were just drawn to his awesome nature and he treated all of them as if they were his own. At ANY sporting event you could hear this conversation at some point. 'Mom/Dad, can I have $$ for the Snack Shack?' Generally proceeded by a 'No'. But they'd always walk away with a smile cause they knew when they...
