It's hard to believe that Rick is gone. When I came to Osseo in 8th grade, I noticed that with his adult-sounding voice, he was usually chosen to read in English class. We made a lot of snarky comments to each other about health class. I remember that he was often involved in school drama productions. Peace to his memory.

Rick was one of my best friends in art classes. We emailed back and forth for a while in 2009 and lost touch again. He was so much fun to hang with.
