Rick was my neighbor for many years. I will remember "Slick Rick" for the countless hours he spent out in his garage blaring his classic rock tunes all hours of the day and night while he worked on one of his many projects - he loved making and posting signs in his front yard over the years. Rosco sure loved Rick and Rick sure loved Rosco. It was fun watching Rick drive down the road with Rosco sitting in the back seat of the drop top mustang and even spotting Rosco in Hy-Vee with Rick on occasion. The two were inseparable! I'll miss watching Rick leaf blow his entire yard after a good mowing, even with a flashlight strapped on the mower at night - he was creative at taking great care of and had pride in his yard. My condolences to Rick's family and my heart goes out to his beloved Rosco.
