We remember like yesterday Rick, working out, running, wrestling, Dennis Harland's whistle, endless sprints to make us what we became....we had a lot of people in our class, but you were a "standout", the few times we saw each other after '76, you made time to show you cared, like no time had passed.....know you are now a star in Heaven my friend, God Bless you and your family.
