To the family of Rick,

I knew Rick for about 12 years, we lost touch after he moved back from Florida. I am very sorry to hear that he has passed on. He meant a lot to a lot of people. Rick was funny and caring and he loved his Harley's. He will surely be missed by many. May he rest in peace, his pain is over. He'll be watching over all of us.



Love,



Ginny (Lang) Atwater
