Rick was so much. He was a loving husband, son, dad, grandfather and brother. He truly cherished each of his family. He was a very talented woodworker and metalsmith. Considered by many to be a genius in his ability to problem solve and fix anything. Rick also enjoyed doing home remodeling. He was service minded toward others. He enjoyed going on Habitat for Humanity trips with Berea College students. He was always in awe of the sights and sounds of the outdoors and found great solace in nature. Rick loved to travel. He was also a great cook, bragging to his wife that he was a better cook than her. His wife always said, she was a better baker!
