My sincere condolences to the family. I took care of Ric when he was a patient of mine back in November-December 2018 at Burgess Square. Very strong man. A true fighter. Kept a close eye on him even though it may have annoyed him at times...to constantly see me. Very nice. Always had something nice to say. So sorry for your loss Kim

I knew Ric through Triangle Fraternity at the Illinois Institute of Technology. He was full of life and promise. Not surprised to learn of his many lifelong hobbies. My sincerest condolences to his family.

My sincere condolences to the family. Ric and I shared a unique friendship. During Ric's 1st semester at IIT and Triangle fraternity, we shared the same room with Ric being my pledge-son. We got to know one another especially close, which created a lasting bond for several years thereafter. Additionally, I was honored to have Ric serve as part of my wedding crew. Special guy, special friend, will be sorely missed.

I was Rick's roommate for a semester at Triangle Fraternity. I'll remember him as a sincere friend, full of ideas, and also ready to enjoy a good time. I watched him spend many hours leaning over his drafting table as he completed one drawing after another. He will be sorely missed. My condolensces to the Diehl family . . .
