I just found out about the passing of my old boss of over 8 years. I worked for Mr. Bricken on 2 different occasions during his time as a defense attorney. He was a great boss, exceptional lawyer and interesting person. I´m sorry to hear of his passing. I pass my sincere condolences onto his family. May he rest in peace.

Richard was always willing to lend a helping hand to a fellow attorney. We will miss him too.

Richard was a wonderful friend. I worked next door to him for many years until he moved to another office downtown in Frederick. I was not able to see him as much. I do not wish to sound cliche but Richard was an attorney who truly had a heart. I will miss him.
