My Condolences to Rick’s family.
Rick was a great team member of our team but more importantly, I considered him a good friend. He always made me laugh when we would have a conversation and especially enjoyed our trips to the airport. He lit up when he spoke about spending time with his family. He was a very caring and giving person and enjoyed making wood projects to share with the team like making cradles for all the ladies at the office and for my granddaughter. The wooden flag he made for our family will have extra meaning to us.
But what I would enjoy the most was him giving the office ladies a hard time and then the ladies giving it right back to him. He would have a designated ring tone for each of the ladies and he would have mischievious smile when the phone would ring from one of them.
We will miss Rick greatly

My sincere condolences to Jackie, Cindy, David and the rest of the family. I’ve been having many flashbacks to time spent with, and stories told of, my mother and dad’s Pleasureville gang’s families as I sort through all of their old photos; and I was dismayed to see Richard’s obit so soon after his Aunt Lou’s. Sending prayers for all.
