To Dianne and family, my heartfelt condolences on the loss of an affable, easygoing, steady gentleman ... Rick was my high school classmate, and as previously posted by me, I last saw him and took a photo with him at the UConn-Missouri football game in Connecticut in 2017, just a week or so after our 50th high school reunion. He invited me and my friend to visit his tailgate prior to the game, a rare opportunity in the East for me to root for my Mizzou Tigers. I recall Rick's ever present smile as he toted an armful of books, held out to the side, in the halls of Metuchen High. Gone much too soon, with a life well lived, may his memory be a blessing to all who knew and loved him.
