Rick was such a bright, friendly, easy-going, hard-working person. He worked with my husband Steve during the "SuperAmerica" days. Steve always came home telling me something funny that Rick said or did.. We had fun in those days, he brightened so many lives, he will truely be missed. Thoughts and prayers to Whitney and all the family.

Dear Ron and Helen, I am so sorry. My family is remembering both of you and Rick's family in our prayers. I didn't hear about Rick's passing until late last night, although Donnie had tried to get hold of me earlier in the day. As I don't really know what to say, I think back to the old days that we all shared with wonderful memories that I will never forget. Now granted, a lot of the memories we have could be held against us!!!, but what a fun time we had! We were all sure of ourselves, so we thought, but little did we know. Then Rick went and joined the Air Force. While we couldn't believe he really did it, we were so proud that he did, and basically he was the first of us to grow up. Ron, I will always remember the time we were supposed to play at Armco Park and Rick had to work. You came out and bailed Jeff, Donnie, and myself out of what could have been a tricky spot. I can't imagine the hurt you are experiencing now, but if you ever need bailed out of a tricky spot, call and I will be there. Skip Edwards, (606) 324-4723 136 Mt. Savage Drive Ashland, Ky. 41101
