In July of 2005, Rick rebuilt the carburetor on my 1990 Cadillac. Thanks to his ongoing care this is still my every day car which he kept on the road. Over the last almost twenty years we became good friends. I had just spoken to him and had planned to see him soon. I was shocked and deeply saddened to hear of his sudden passing. I understand that his services are private. I had been hoping to pay my respects. Should this be appropriate, my contact information is: Jeff Reckseit, 410-628-8010, [email protected]
Please accept my deepest sympathies and condolences. Sincerely, Jeff Reckseit
