Rocky,

I'm am so sorry to here about Rick.

There are no words that can give you comfort. You know he was loved and will be missed. I would have liked to have been there to pay my last respects and give you my support. I was in Florida visiting my daughter. Today is Angies birthday and today is the day I heard. I cried a little for both of them and some for us that have to wait to see them. My heart goes out to you!

Love,

Linda

Dear Rocky,



I just want you to know what a beautiful service you had for Rick today. The eulogy of Rick's life that Tom read was so moving and touching. Thank you so much for keeping the true memories of Rick alive.

Rocky and Richie,

It's hard to express in words the deep loss we feel knowing that Rick has passed away. He was a wonderful husband to Rocky, father to Richie, brother-n-law to the aunts/uncles and uncle to all of us cousins. We will always remember him as a man who enjoyed life spending it with his family and friends. We have had a lot of great memories of Rick over the years and these wonderful memories will never fade. We will miss him dearly.

Love,

Bryan and Cheryl

Rick and I used to work together at Challenge Printing. I can honestly say he would always walk around with a smile, and would always be a friend. We would sometimes go on deliveries together and talk about life, and how he loved his wife and son. He always had such a positive outlook on things. When you meet good people in your life like him you carry a little bit of them with you forever. He will be missed! His Friend, Todd Epley

I always enjoyed Rick's great sense of humor and wonderful smile!

We shared some good laughs together about Camp Kitchi Kahnis and Ermine hunting in Arizona.

Rick, your suffering is over now and may you rest in peace! You will be missed but never forgotten!

Rick is going to be greatly missed. We loved him very much. We'll miss his great smile, his fun sense of humor, his funny jokes that he loved to tell. We'll miss hearing him sing along with his Elvis, and Country Music records while we played cards. But, most of all we'll miss seeing him, with Rocky and Richie, at our family events. Rick will be in our hearts forever. We love Rocky and Richie too. We'll always be here for you.

Love,

Loretta and Tom

A special note to Rocky and Richie and all of Rick's family: We are so sorry we can't be there with you for the funeral. We did feel it might be best to wait until later and spend some special time with all of you. I want you to know that I (Margie) have been saying special prayers for Rick. I feel certain those prayers will be answered in some way and Rick is now in a better place. We love you both dearly and want you to know we are always here for you.



Our Deepest Sympathies,

Rocky and Richie: I'm so sorry to hear about Rick. He was way too young, so much of life to live yet. I remember him just as his picture shows him, laughing and smiling. You’re blessed with a large and loving family to help you through the next years and you have each other. I'm sorry for the pain and sorrow you will go through as you face the days ahead. I wish it could be easier... I wish I could say the words to make it easier for you.
