  11. I just recently found out Rick passed and was very saddened. Rick was our neighbor in Lagrange Park growing up and what an amazing man he was. We were both huge fans of baseball and he brought us back souvenirs from his trip to the world series, always had a smile, always cared, always let us use his pool,always happy and upbeat. I thank God we had the opportunity to be his neighbor and friend. I mourn his loss and pray for his wonderful family and friends. If anyone deserves to be in heaven, it’s Rick and I know that’s exactly where he is.
