Rick will be missed by so many Training Directors such as myself. The IBEW-NECA Team has lost a good man. I will remember Rick with a smile on my face. He was one of very few who could answer the really tough questions our JATC's needed answers to. Rick was a mentor to many in our industry and we will all miss him very much.

I was very saddened to hear of the loss of this fine man. Rick helped me with tons of questions over the past 15 years I've known him. Rick and I laughed over the silly things that make up the humor in our lives. I had the pleasure of learing from him during various NJATC Seminars around the Country. There are few people in the Electrical Industry of the stature and professionalism that was Rick Hecklinger. May he rest in peace and in God's hands.
