    I had the pleasure of working with Rick for 15+ years and his spirit and positive attitude helped me to be where I am today. He was always such a dedicated worker and family man, he has influenced me in the trade and at home. God bless his family in this time of grief and now he will find comfort with he lord. I hope you are on a quiet peaceful stream catching big trout in heaven my friend.

    Dear Nancy & Family,
    I am very sorry to hear of Rick’s passing. I worked with Rick for almost 25 years at Murphy Company. Rick was always a pleasure to work with. He was always calm, cool and collected in an often times hectic environment. Rick made the world a better place. One of the last times i saw Rick was him driving past and honking at my Wife and I on Main Street in his convertible this past fall.

    My deepest condolences to you all.
