Rick was a very nice person. Sorry for your loss. I worked with him at chewy. He called me aunt Stacy and the last time I saw him was at target when he introduced me to his girlfriend. I'm really sorry for your loss. He was a really great guy. Louise laughed, always kidding around. And he will be truly missed

I'm so very sorry for the loss of Rich. I haven't seen him for a very long time. We worked together at Universal 1 Credit Union fka NCR Universal Credit Union from 1985 up to when he left which was several years. I remember him as a goofy, happy guy with a good heart. He always had a positive outlook on things.

I had been trying to get in touch with him but I guess I was a bit late trying as I found out he had been very ill. May God bless his soul. He was a good kid. I'm so sad to hear of his passing. Fly high Rich!
