Dear Robbie, I am so sorry to hear of Rick's passing. I just now found this obituary, as I was attempting to find him and reconnect. I last spoke to Rick and Roxanne many years ago, and then we lost touch. If you remember me from Rick's UC Davis years, I would love to talk with you. I am on Facebook. Blessings on you and your family,
Lori (Bottarini) Baenziger

I was very sad to hear of Rick's passing. We had great fun as kids enjoying the outdoors. I had hoped to reconnect at some point. My condolences to you and your families, I'm very sorry for your loss.

Jane and I knew Rick well in High School and through hunting along the creek. We hoped to see him again after we all retire, but sadly that won't happen. We mourn his passing and offer our deepest condolences to you that loved him so much. Blessings to you all.
