I am very sorry to hear of Rick's passing. I got to know Rick when I worked with him at the Frederick Cancer Research Center in the early '80s. In a way, my career in biotechnology and pharmaceutical manufacturing was influenced by Rick. He was a good person; down to earth, friendly, not pretentious, and quite a creative businessman.

I am so sorry to hear of Rick's passing. I used to work with him at Flight Training, Inc. at "Friendship" Airport. He was such a nice person to know and work with. My sympathies to all of you during this difficult time.
