He attended East High School where he met his lifelong sweetheart, married for 21 years, Barb.

With devotion, soaring ambitions, and endless pride in his work for OSU, Rick was respected to infinite limits, and had an interminable devotion for his career, and for the Buckeyes. His heart only matched these feelings for his family, where he was unquestionably the most brilliant, compassionate, courageous, and protecting individual his wife and kids had ever dreamed of. He will remain the inspiration to live life with the utmost enthusiasm and integrity.
