Ricky, I love you so much.  I have such great memories from you coming home from the Navy and mom telling me she would wake me up when you got home and I was too excited to sleep, to spending time with you last summer.  We had such a great time, together.  Your love of music and telling me Kenny G wasn’t really Jazz, (smile) and then you playing Earth Wind & Fire.  We sang in the car on the way back from the beach.  So many wonderful memories I will cherish. 

To know Rick was to love him. His humor and zest for life was simply unparalleled in my book.
He was always so fun to be around.
I know you felt the love he had for all of you, and that will always live on. 
He had the soul of an artist, the heart of a true gentleman, and too many talents to even begin to count. To Vicki, Rachel, Erin, and to all his family and friends thanks for being there buddy to my buddy Rick, you are truly one of a kind.
Was that ok DB? Rest in Peace my friend.


Dear Bubby Rick - music man and documenter and CBA VP  - I sure miss you - we are going to Bub Hill today and putting a plaque on your favorite tree--  Pete Bub






Thanks for the music! You started with our wedding songs and introduced me to so many artists over the years. We could always count on you to have the soundtrack going and your trusty microphone at the ready recording the best and worst of times.  You are "The Music Man"

No one can ever take your place. You were a big part of my life. You are a BUB  forever. The Grandbub.

Dan and I knew Rick briefly but he was always friendly, kind and fun. We enjoyed his stories about the wonderful times in his life! I was fortunate enough to sit across the table from Rick at Roland's  retirement party and we had quite a few laughs and watched some of the football game.  He was a fine example of a life lived well and with a wife he loved. Our deepest sympathy to Vicki.  From Kathy and Dan Herrygers 

My deepest sympathy to Vicki, his wonderful family and friends who were always so kind to everyone.
Rick's art and humor will always be in my memory along with his love of music.   
Rick loved so many things in life and shared experiences with everyone.  Rest in Peace.

At a loss for words. Rick was a man who loved  family, music,art, camping , friends and he will be missed by all. Rest In Peace Rick you are loved.

We are so thankful we spent the weekend with Rick and Vicki.   Always a fun time with those two.  We will miss him dearly.  
Roland and Kathryn
