Richard was a good guy. I enjoyed working with him at the model railroad swapmeets the past year.  Ride the rails in the sky buddy. 

I'd like to remember Rick as that irascible friend who always brought a smile and a good attitude with him, to the many sessions of the Inyosub.  Never a grumbler, Rick liked to tackle a job till he could get it right. Everyone enjoyed his company and his dry comments would often illicit a smile. When I was a guest at Rick's
he made sure I was comfortable and understood what was going on. Always willing to share the background history behind his creation.  I would like to think Rick will be forever banging cars, waiting for the rest of us, in the great model RR in the sky.  RIP my friend.

Richard was a good friend.  We shared a love of model railroading and Richard was very proud of his.  It was my pleasure to have my friend willing to share the hobby he loved, based on where he grew up, with me and many others.

We rode together sometimes, sharing company.  We went to other layouts.  We shared our passions for HO trains.  We shared our friendship.  

I will miss you Richard.  I always thought you would make it back home.  I, for one, will never forget you and will miss you.

God Bless
