A special thanks to our fellow teachers at Dr. G.W. Williams Secondary School and to the 10th Line gang (Feversham), who often joined us for activities - including happy hour - at the farm, the Haliburton cottage, and our Collingwood home. Rick was admired for his generosity, his leadership and his sense of humour.
His hat in the above photo is not a baseball cap; it's a Tea Cozy!!!
Sincere thanks to the staff at Sunset Manor for their compassionate care. Cremation has taken place.
A memorial donation may be made in his name to the Collingwood General and Marine Hospital.
