Mr. Richard Ivan "Rick" Eddie Jr.

Dear Sheryl, I am so sorry for the loss of your beloved partner Rick. It was a sudden change and was not expected. My thoughts are with you and your family and I wish you peace and comfort during this difficult time.

While I am sorry to hear of Rick's passing, I know he and Shane along with your mom and dad were there to greet him and now are sitting around catching up with each other. We will be there to say our final farewell.

I met Rick during the first Obama campaign. He was cooking for an event in his home. We struck up a conversation and I immediately liked him. Rick made our world a better place.
