Miss you my friend.   God bless you♥️♥️♥️♥️

Rick and I did not get to spend a lot of time together but that never changed how much his kind and caring personality showed. We talked about radios and on the radio now and then about things going on in the world. But mostly I got to watch him and his love for my mother-in-law Kimberly and her family. I loved that he would play cribbage with my wife Lori who is Kimberly's daughter. They would share book suggestions and just take time out of the days and months to just talk.  Rick, I will miss the CQ and the camping trips. You are missed.

With love and gratitude and 73,

Rick and I met in 2011.  We were married at the end of that year.  Shortly after that he received a kidney transplant after 4 years or so on dialysis.  We fell on difficulty times personally this last year. Rick requested a divorce for financial reasons as he needed to qualify for assistance with his medical supplemental plan that offset the tremendous cost of his anti rejection medications for his 
Kidney,  This did create a lot of stress between us and the divorce was granted and we parted ways. But over the last 6 months I saw Rick working hard to restore our relationship.  In the last month he came and helped me with so many things. That last time he was over to my apt which was a week before he died, out of the blue he said “Kimberly Lori I love you! “ I reciprocated that. I am so grateful that our temple sealing remains in tact and that we are bound for time and all eternity.  I look forward to that day.

I first met Rick as a sophomore at Sunset High School in 1973 and instantly knew that I had a friend for life.  Most of the great memories that I have of Rick were either on the golf course, basketball court or softball fields.  I could always count on a fun and eventful game when we were working together.  I vividly remember going with Rick to repossess a truck at a logging camp in Central Oregon.  We pulled up to the camp, Rick introduced himself and told those at the camp why we were there.  The next thing I remember was hearing a rifle being cocked.  Rick shouted out  that payment was due in 10 days as we were flying out of there as fast as his car could go.  

My most recent interactions with Rick though were while he was going through his kidney transplant and other health challenges.  No matter how sick he was or how bad he felt though, his thoughts were always on others and how he could serve them.  Rick was a stalwart and faithful disciple of Jesus Christ.   He blessed the lives of many people, including my family.  Rick will be missed by many, but he is together with his family and is in the loving arms of his Heavenly Father.  RIP Blue :)

I was Rick's hairstylist and he was always such a very kind man to my family and myself. He always had such nice things to say about all of my children. He had such a great knowledge and perspective on things. We went to the same church together and we were friends long before I even starting cutting his hair. He will surely be missed by us. My heart goes out to all of his friends and families.

I met Rick about a year and a half ago when he joined the SCOPE North office of the Sheriff’s Community Oriented Policing Effort.  On learning he was an amateur radio operator, I encouraged him to join our Emergency Response Communication team  also.  He did and was an enthusiastic member.   The pandemic hit soon after he joined and we never had a chance to benefit from his knowledge and expertise 

God Bless,    Greg  K2GEP
