Rick will surely be missed by many. He was a great friend, person, and his contagious personality made him so fun to be around. We were fortunate to work with him for a long time and will never forget the good times we had.

Son, today we say goodbye to you, but you will never be forgotten. I miss you so much. Our morning time together is so lonely now. I miss your 'Ricky P. in the house" when you came in and slammed the door. I love you son but I know you are in a better place and will rest in peace. I thank God for having you for 40 years.

My heart, thoughts, & prayers are with you all. I was floored when I read about Rick this morning. We all remember your wonderful family centered around 'Round Table' but more so at all the school functions, fundraisers, games & events that you made as your 'other' family. Know that Rick is at peace & touch your heart, because he is there for you. With love & prayers, The Eastons, Stephanie, Jerry, Sarah, David & Jamin

I am terribly sorry to hear this news. My love and condolences go out to you, Amanda, Phil, Lil and Denise. I too will always cherish the happy memories of time spent with the Powell family at Round Table Pizza and listening to music. It was always a treat when Amanda's hot older brother Rick would make an appearance. It was like seeing a celebrity. :-) Again, you will be in my thoughts and prayers and I am so sorry for your loss. Love, Allyson Marino Schectman

Phil, Lil, Amanda, Denise, kids and entire family,

You are all in our prayers during this time. I have many fond, fun and hilarious memories of the years spent with my Round Table Pizza "family" and that would include the times Rick would come by from Stater's and hangout on his break. I saw Rick a couple months ago at Phil's house and he said, "what's up John." Good guy!! and great family the Powells are!! Anyway, I'm sure you guys know that we're all here for you and are available if you need anything. Don't hesitate to ask. I'm just down the street. RIP Rick.
