The first day I met with Rick as I began my sales job with Diebold, he brought me a hard hat. He told me to wear it on job site visits as it could be dangerous. Rick was a caring man and always looked out for others whether it be co-workers, friends, or customers. He taught me so much in the few years I worked with him. I know God is looking out for him. He will be missed by many, including me. I am proud to say Rick Silverio was my friend.

Rick, may you rest in peace after your couragous battle. I dont belve I have ever met you, but I have known your sister Pam for 30 years. I've met a few of your sibbilings in the past, being from butler but living in the poconos for the last 25 years. Knowing Pam and talking to her on a regular basis I knew you were truly loved by pam and your familly. Im sure there's a void in your family's life now that your memories will eventually fill.

Rick was a wonderful person to work with during my time at Diebold. As I learned my job in the installation department he was always patient with me and a great teacher. He was my supporter and a prayer warrior during my health struggles. I will never forget a beautiful get well card he made me from several photos he took. In it he wrote, "If God can create something this beautiful He can also take care of you." My dear friend Rick, you are now with God to enjoy everything beautiful in heaven. I love you my friend. p.s. - Thanks for putting in the good word for me with God. I got a new job the day you met with Him and my margins are clean! Praise God!
