Amber Hubert wrote a sympathy message

“I carry so many memories of Rick. I am his niece, and he was always making jokes, always trying to make everyone around him smile. I’ll forever remember the many Christmases and Thanksgivings we spent together. He took great pride in his beautiful home and had a deep love for classic cars and old movies. He was also an incredible salesman for many years. My thoughts are with his devoted wife. Rick is at peace now, and his laughter and love will live on in all of us.”

James Milligan wrote a sympathy message

“Rick was a friend the first day we met back in 1960. It was his enthusiastic sense of humor that first attracted me, but I was deeply affected and influenced by the bond of friendship that was developed between us. It was always a treat of meeting up with him at reunion gatherings and other events of personal interest. I have so much more to say. I will always have a place in my heart for Rick and the memories that we created through our lives. Rest in peace now my dear friend. James Milligan”
