My Friendship with Rick began in Cub Scouts....As a teenager I found myself ( in wee hours of the morning) needing a ride home from the Fair. Rick( with Dave Cabral) gave me that much needed lift home....The rest is History.... We raised a little Hell ,my Friend.....
We Rocked and Rolled with the Band......We pushed our Hot Rods to the edge.... We Cursed and Praised the Bruins... We laughed so hard that our insides were never the same.... In our Life we have Friends, that no matter how long it has been since You have seen them ..it is like time has not passed.... Rick is my Friend ,as such...
Words cannot express my Heart and Sympathy to You Robin..... and to all of Your Family... .. I'll see ya in the next my Brother..... Remember You in this one... with a mischievous grin....

I'm so sorry for the family's loss of my great friend Rick you will be forever remembered , I loved our phone calls and I would stop by the house every time I saw the door open to share some ball busting , he always thanked me for stopping by or calling and I would say that's what friends do , I'm going to miss my friend more then I can explain , you was a great guy and always worried about everyone but himself and that's the kind of guy he was , I will cherish the times we spent together the last 5 years that we reconnected since we was kids , I'm honored to have called you my friend and you may be gone but you will never be forgotten , RIP Rick thanks for the memories

Rick was always a ton of fun to be around. Extremely quick witted...you had to be on your A game around him for sure. I will be forever thankful that I had the priviledge of calling him a friend of mine. He was truly one of a kind and will be sorely missed by myself and anyone that knew him. My deepest condolences go out to his wife Robin...as well as his family and friends. Rest easy my friend.
