Rick passed away today Aug. 30th 2011

[sstock]

Even though I never Pm'd/talked or knew Mr. Rick, I feel his loss as a fellow Bucket Head with common interest. I will get to know Rick by reading some of his previous posts. I respect him for having the courage to post up his bad news and prognosis. His love for the Bucketeers was evident because he wanted people with the common passion to know about him and his very personal buisness.
Take care for now, I will cruise with you at a later time Bro.

I talked with Kim, Rick's Daughter, today, and she said that she was having a hard time with using his e-mail to answer all the messages, so his close friends could call Her about the get together (Memorial) for Rick... her Number is (313) 469-3037

Would be great if buckets that are close could show up at his memorial. Rick you are in a better place with no pain and loved ones praying for/with you.

I never met Rick in person, but we e-mailed each other, quite a bit. I had a lot of questions,
and he took the time to answer each and every one! he did not get mad at somebody that was
willing to learn, and listen to be safe in our great hobby. For that I will always remember him!

My thoughts and prayers are with Rick and his family.

Rick-see ya at that big cruise-in in the sky. Although we never met, you are still my friend. You and your family are in my thoughts and prayers.

Rick, Rest in Peace. I am sure you are in a place with no pain. My prayers will be for your family during this time of sorrow and mourning, but we should all be joyful that your race has been run and you have received your heavenly reward. You will be dearly missed by all.

Yea Ron, thats what I was gonna try to do and get them to have some good rock and roll in the background......then post it here. Something like 'You got another thing comin' or Don't fear the Reaper' while a 2500 horse Hemi Howls down the 1/4......
