I was shocked to here about Rick, He and I was in the Guards together and I gave him a ride home in the rain one day after our weekend drill down at Atterbury. I have not seen him in a long time but I thought of Rick a lot, thinking of the laughing we did while riding home in the Rain. I will miss him and I know the family will to, I am sorry he will not be with us here, but he will always be in my Heart, God bless, Rick and I will see you soon in Heaven, Love You my Freind.
