Wow I'm totally shocked again twice in one week. First Harry and now Rick. I am at a loss for words. Condolences and prayers to Rick's family. I enjoyed talking to him on I W as he love to share his knowledge of RC Boat's. He will be missed for sure.

 

[Carl Van Houten]

It's sad to hear about both of these guys. You just never know when you are seeing a fellow racer for the last time.

I think that we should treat each other like it was going to be the last time we raced together.

My condolences to his family and friends. As we lose friends, we are reminded to enjoy the friends we have today and to tell our families that we love them more often.

I can't believe this. Never met Rick in person but we have talked many hours on the phone. Very sad.

I know he had some posts on here. Can someone please post a Pic of him, maybe of him at a race?

With all of the shots I've got on my computer, I was hoping to find at least one of Rick. His wife has a couple on her Facebook page but nothing up-close. Mike Schindler might have him in a video from July.

He loved working on cars. We spent lots of time talking about them.a few days ago he was telling me how happy he was to see me model boating again. It's unbelievable that his now gone. His vehicle go hit very hard I seen the pictures and videos. It's a very sad day. You will never be forgotten my friend.

 

[Bert Dygert]

We will miss Rick for sure. Celina Ohio race won't be the same.

Always a friendly smile and willing to help!!!

Rest in Peace Rick.

We will keep the family in our prayer!!!

 

[Brian Spitzer]

Rick, you'll be missed. You were without a doubt, one of the most enthusiastic model boaters I've met. RIP my friend.

 

[mike walker]

I'll think of him every time I go into a turn with my cracker box or go out for a smoke at a swap meet. R.I.P

RIP RICK . He was a great guy a fellow builder, what I remember was he loved to shingle those ride pads. I have one of his boats. I think the way he went was a tragedy and should be notice us all that you never know when your next. Rick is in heaven that you can be sure of. Prayers go out to his family, lorri so sorry for your loss. Prayers and condolences Al Archer D4 director
