Richard was a great guy. He did several major projects in our last two houses. He was a true craftsman. We could always count on him to complete the job, above and beyond our expectations. We were all saddened by his passing. He was a wonderful man and a great friend.

Rick (Moe) and I have been friend since the days of early grade school in St. Cyprian's. Over the years he became part of my immediate family as we all lived on the same block. Rick was quite the bowler and we kept that up until my family grew. I remember when he bought that double neck acoustic guitar and kept at it religiously until he had mastered "Stairway to Heaven." Rick was always polite, truly honest and could be counted on to always "do the right thing." Rick and Jim had to grow up fast when their parents passed early in their lives. My dad seen him more frequently over the last 10 years, but we did manage to catch a lot of Bear games over the years. Anyway, Rick did stand up at my wedding and I believe it was one of his best pictures ever taken...so I am posting it here. The Milarski family should be very proud of how this man carried himself. We are all truly sorry for his loss and I am sure we will never forget him.

My deepest sympathies and condolences to you Jim, Felisa and family as you endure such a tragic loss. Your pain and grief are shared by so many who have been blessed and priviledged enough to know Rick and I am so grateful to be one of the people that he considered a friend for so many years. I will carry the memories and LOVE for Rick in my heart forever and my thoughts and prayers will be with you all as well.
