Rick was my parents neighbor and he was a super helpful friend to them. His word was his bond and was willing to help anyway. Linda, my prayers are with you and your family. May God give you comfort during this time. I was honored to have known him.
My condolences go to Rick’s family. I had the pleasure of working with Rick on many occasions during our days at Alabama Public Television. He was a good person and a good friend.
Linda, Caren, Hayley & Tyler,
I’m so sorry to hear of Rick’s passing. I know you will miss your husband, dad & papa very much! Prayers for comfort & peace in the days ahead.
My thoughts and prayers go to all of Rick’s Family. I worked with Rick for 25 years at Alabama Public Television. Rick was a joy to work with as many times we would work on TV transmitters for 24 hours plus, but always getting the transmitter back on air. Rick was a very good Broadcast engineer and will be missed!
