Rick was such a funny guy; he always had a joke to make us laugh in our morning meetings at Old Town Trolley. I was so shocked to hear the news. It makes my heart ache. You are in my prayers. May God bless you at this dark time.

Sabine and family:
I am so sorry for your loss. Words fall short of saying what is in my heart.
Rick and I served on the traffic team together and what a blessing he was always willing to help in anything that needed to be done – He loved serving our Lord.
All that knew him will truly miss him, but we have comfort in the knowledge that he is with Jesus today.
Our prayers are with you all.
God Bless,
Ron Ritter

I am so sad to hear of Rick's passing. Although we didn't see each other that often, we became friends while serving on the traffic team together. I always enjoyed our conversations at church. I will truly miss him. God Bless you all.
