I am so sorry to hear this news. I grew up down the street from the Hannegans. Wonderful family. Rick and I attended grammar school through high school together. He was so kind. I felt like he accepted all people. We had some classes together in Jr. High School. I always considered him a "true" friend, meaning, it didn't matter what neck of the woods you came from, he had no problem being your friend. When we were seniors I would walk up the street needing a ride to school. I can still see his parents sitting there with a smile and Rick coming out to greet me and take me school. We had conversations on the way to school, I still to this day remember some. About 16 or 17 years ago we communicated by email, giving each other updates on our lives. He ended with a kind ending as with me, as a friend, he always did. I hope he didn't suffer, he didn't deserve to suffer. I wish I could have seen him one more time.....rest in peace Rick, you were truly a one-of-a-kind loving man. Linda
