Sending my sincere condolences for the loss of Rick. I had known Rick since he was about 14, I think. Nancy Schaub is one of my dearest friends whom I have known since we were 11. I was introduced to Rick through her. I am not sure if you would recognize my name, but I had sent Rick a few greeting cards over the past year. Although our paths had not really crossed in such a long time, I continued to care for him. Rick was always such a sweet guy and I feel blessed to have known him. We plan to be out of town the day of the Memorial Services, so I am not sure I will have the chance to come give my respect to all or not. I just wanted to be sure you knew I was thinking of all of you. May God bless you with the comfort and peace in which only He can truly provide.
