Hi, I'm Cliff, Rick's brother. As many of you know, Rick was involved in a motorcycle accident on July 7th. Currently, we are still waiting for him to be released by the medical examiner and need funds to cover the funeral expenses and his memorial service.

He was so loved by all of us and I'm grieved that at times he really didn't understand how much. I'd like to hold a large gathering where all of his friends and loved ones can attend. We can express our love for him and remember all the beautiful moments that we shared together.

If you can spare anything to help, it would be great, but please do not feel obligated to. If you were lucky enough to have Rick be a part of your life, you know that he wouldn't want to burden anybody in any kind of way.

Thank you all for being good friends to him and giving him the love he deserved. He had a wonderful life and I'm glad we all got to experience it together.
