Rick is survived by his four children – three sons and a daughter – two step children - twelve grandchildren, his long time partner of thirty six years and his beloved cat Artemus. His precious dog Willie is waiting for him at the golden gate.
He was an entrepreneur who built a successful family business in the construction industry which 2 of his sons now manage and control. He had a passion for people, nature, wildlife, animals, travel, sports (the Pittsburgh Steelers and New York Yankees) and casinos .
He had a strong empathy for people, was grateful for the blessings the Lord bestowed upon him and generously supported causes helping the less fortunate. His quick wit, easy smile, positive attitude and upbeat personality will be greatly missed.
