Rick will always hold a special place in my memories created when we served together in VS-28 on the Saratoga aircraft carrier. Great man.

Rick and I served together as part of VS-28 between 1968 and 1972. If I remember correctly we both served on the USS Saratoga on a cruise through the Med. and had some good times after we both got out. Me, Rick and Rod Duesing hung out together for 30 days in Jacksonville after an incident in a bar, and then joined the Saratoga for the cruise.
Great memories, but I regret not staying in touch all these years. My condolences to his family.

I haven't been in contact with Rick for a long. He was a good friend...and a real funny guy.

It didn't take 5 minutes from first meeting Rick to know that he cared passionately about the well being of other people and animals and the environment. He was a good, caring, and thoughtful neighbor and friend. Our love to Sherry.
