Not sure what to say?

Rick valued the friends he made at Farell's over 40 years ago. He gathered them and made tacos for their poker parties at his house. Who will do that now? His family and friends grieve his loss. He was a lovely man.

It was my great pleasure to work with both Rick and Rod in the late 1960s at Farrell's. Both great guys! I was in Portland recently, for the first time since 1991, and reminisced fondly about Rick with another Farrell's alum. I remember Rick's mischievous smile, his great work ethic, and his fun attitude with great affection. I extend my sincere sympathy to all of his loving family.

Godspeed my friend

I remember Rick and Rod fondly as the energetic entrepreneurs of Harry's Mustache in downtown Oregon City at a time (late 1970s-early 1980s) when there was little energy in old Oregon City. Rick was a friendly, welcoming fellow to those of us who worked in downtown OC.

Our hearts go out to you at this time and in the days ahead.

Offering our deepest condolences during this difficult time.
