I just saw this today and wanted to send my condolences. Rick was truly an accomplished and fascinating individual. I always liked spending time with him, and with you too Patti. I hope you're doing well. It's been a while so I'll remind you, Patti, that I used to be Rachel Tanney from the Cal State Long Beach design program.....way back in the day. I still brag about how you designed the mosaics in the parking garage at the Long Beach Aquarium. I truly hope you are healthy and happy, you...

With deep regrets we send our sincere sympathy
to Rick's family. We were fraternity brothers
of Pi Kappa Alpha Fraternity at S.M. U. in Dallas and enjoyed many happy timesduring our
days at the fraternity house. It has been over
60 years since we last saw each other but have
lots of fond memories of those days. Would love to hear from Pattie and his children.
