So sorry to hear of Ricks passing. We were good friends at Little Rock AFB. I used to give him rides home to Batesville on my way home to Missouri until he could buy a car. He was always a great friend with a good heart. We worked together as Security Police, partied together and even double dated. Rick always smiled and brought out the best in you. A big man with a bigger heart. RIP brother.
Rick was a good friend in the years I knew him at McConnell AFB in Wichita KS. I just found out yesterday 12/6/2015 that he passed away. I haven't seen or talked to him in years but I miss him. RIP my friend...I am truly sorry. May God bless and receive your soul.
What a great friend Rick was with me and so many others while stationed in Kansas.
I was so glad to reconnect again on FB.
Very sad to hear of his passing. He will be missed.
RIP my friend...
Remember our days with the ADC Boot Camp.
Thoughts and prayers to your family.

Rick will be missed. He never failed to speak when you met him out in public. He raised two fine sons and was involved with their interest as they were growing up.
Dear Jan and Scott and Kelly, I was shocked and saddened to hear of Ricks passing. I have always considered Rick a friend and hate it for you guys. I am working in Kansas City and can't get home for the services but know that mine and Buck's prayers are with you. Buck was saddened deeply to hear the news.
