I am so sorry for your loss. I always enjoyed my haircuts and visits with Rick. He never complained when I let my hair grow for a couple of months at a time….he was an excellent barber and a good friend. I will miss him. I don’t believe anyone else has cut my hair for 35 years or more.

My sympathy to Rick’s family. He was a friend, barber & hairdresser of our family for years. He was a kind hearted and gentle person with a great sense of humor! We are so fortunate to have known him. He will be truly missed.
