Rick was known to be a handy man who hung the Christmas Lights ( among other things) in Madrid. Those who knew him would agree with me when I say he was knowledgeable and kind. Rose and I have Mindy (Rick’s Chihuahua), who is happily living with us now. I hope that all who want to make it for the celebration of life event (TBD), stay healthy and safe until the time comes.

He and I were very close growing up all over Akron. He created a spook house in North Hill, tried to scare me with Gardner snakes in our home in portage lakes, then because he was always fishing grosses me out with cleaning the fish he caught! School was hard for him socially but he excelled in subjects because he had a brilliant mind. We’d play cards after school during high school most days before digging into homework. When he moved west, for many years it was hard to stay in touch so I cherish these last years we were about to reconnect. My trip to Sante Fe was amazing. He drove me everywhere , showing me the land he loved. In his gross looking truck that rode like a Cadillac! He certainly followed our dad as a gear head as does his son Luke. I got to visit Zack and Kaelynn as well at their home. He will be dearly missed. Love & prayers to his family out west.
