Christine,
How very sad to hear of your husband's death.  My heartfelt condolences go out to you and your family.

I will fondly remember Rick's boisterously wonderful character, uplifting smile and the selfless devotion shown for his students at The King's University. As a work colleague, I witnessed his daily and silent ministry to care for the students that sought his help; not once did I ever hear him say that he was too busy to help anyone who was asking for assistance. What a blessing to have known his gentle and insightful spirit! Prayers for peace and love to those who mourn this monumental loss.

Our heart breaks for you all in this terrible loss of Rick...truly heartbreaking
