It´s been 5 years and much has changed. We have moved from the NSB area, but still visit and always stop at C´s down A1A. The restaurant has gone through upgrades and the mural of Rick is especially charming. Rick is still in our memory as one of the nicest persons we have ever met. The world could use a few more Ricks.

To Rick's family and friends. Sorry for your loss. It is a loss for all who knew him. I first met him at his restaurant. Then later at Happy Nails. He would come in and ask if anyone needed coffee or just to chat with those he knew. I don't think he ever met a stranger and if they were they weren't for long. We will all miss him. A kind and gentle soul.

We were all blessed to know Rick. I've never known a better man or more gracious host.

We will truly miss Rick. His kind & friendly mannerism set him apart from most people. He always found the time to stop and chat, and ask how things are going when we'd see him at a C's breakfast. He was an immediate friend to all, after just saying Hi! His love of the Steelers is undefinable, and was only equal to his devotion to family. Our condolences to all his family, fiancé, and acquaintances & friends who will forever miss him.

We are two snow birds from Massachusetts and had breakfast every Sunday at "Cs". Rick would always greet us with a smile on his face and we had many discussions regarding the Pats and Steelers rivalry. We will miss him sorely.
Our deepest sympathies go out to his family.

To Ricks family. I'm so sorry for your loss. I was so shocked and saddened when I heard this. Rick was such a fun loving guy and I will miss him. He was always so kind, friendly and fun. My family and friends so enjoyed having breakfast at C's in NSB beachside. You are all in my thoughts and prayers.
