Rick touched the lives of many and he will be missed.

Life is like a rocky river bed with its ups and downs. Sometimes you are blessed with finding a
precious gold gem. Unfortunately those gems can be taken away as quickly as they are spotted. That

To All Rick's Family..
Rick was special to everyone who knew him; whether if we were just classmates, or friends later in life. That much shows clearly in everyone's entries here. After only knowing Rick in school, it is wonderful to hear about the sort of man he became. The memories are overwhelming and I'm so sorry for your loss.

Our deepest sympathy goes out to Rick's family and freinds.

Hibbing Airtanker Base sends heartfelt condolences to the many friends and family of Rick. I remember the first time he flew in with Del. I asked him where he was from and he smiled and said everywhere. Then he said, "Oh, you mean where do I keep my stuff." What a great sense of humor he had. He will be missed by all of us at the base in Hibbing. Clear skies Rick.

My deepest simpathy goes out to Rick's family. Our thoughts and prayers are with you from all of us at the Jeffco Airtanker Base.

We met Rick though my sister Elaine & brother-in-law Ed Bauer. He was real gentleman and a man who was capable of doing anything. He will be missed and we share his
loss with his family & friends.

Our deepest sympathy goes to your family during this difficult time.
