Very sad to hear of Rick's passing.
I got to know Rick through his play in the Monday golf league. He was a pleasure to be around, and he always had a smile on his face. Especially when he was beating me. I don't think I ever met a finer gentleman. I will miss him.
My heartfelt condolences to the Scheffer family.
