I am so sorry for your loss. I met Rick close to twenty years ago and liked him instantly. I'm quite a bit younger than he was and he was always so nice to me, and supportive. He always treated me as an equal. He would come hear our band play and was very complimentary, and we always had a few Rolling Stones songs ready to play for him. I was lucky enough to go to several concerts with him as well, and had a particular evening at a John Hiatt show that I will never forget! His laugh was infectious, his sense of humor was excellent and I always enjoyed talking with him because he could converse about anything, but it almost always ended in a laugh. Rachel was the most important thing to him, and his face lit up every time I asked about her. He was so proud of her! I hope she knows how much he loved her. I will always remember my friend and the laughs I had with him, and I will miss him!
