I loved you with all my heart and miss you everyday. My earliest memory is of you playing "Here Comes the Sun" for me in the garage with your friends. I'm sure they have an awesome music store where you are at. Thanks for all you did. Holly sure liked you too and was glad she met you. You made her laugh especially about how you knew what I was doing with the breadstick I miss you and love you Dad.

RIP Dad. I hope you are playing beautiful music d

Rick and I were neighbors and friends in Chico, CA. He was always supportive of everything I did in life. He was especially supportive of me as a musician. He would come over from time to time for coffee. On one of those visits, left me some guitar books with personal notes of encouragement in them. I can honestly say that he is one of a few quality people in my life, that have kept me moving forward in such a positive way. Rick, you will be missed, but more importantly, the positive impact you had on my life will be with me from now on. Rest in peace my friend.

I'm sad to hear this. Every year or so I've googled Rick but never could get info. I married Rick when I was 20 and he was 30. Long long time ago. I've just always wondered how he was. I remember his kids Ricky and Jennifer and hope they are fine, I also remember Mike's son Scott.
