querida Diana, we continue to hold you and all your family in our hearts and in our prayers ❤️ What a treasure you and Rick have given to all of us in sharing this difficult and profound journey. Thank you, dear friend. Sending you love from Oklahoma, y un fuerte abrazo!

Diana, Rick, you, and your family are in my prayers. May God grant you consolation and peace! Rick was a very special person. He had a positive impact on many lives, including mine. He will be missed.

May the angels take him to paradise….

Diana - you are in my and our thoughts and hearts at St. Mary of the Angels. Rick is with God, safely home. Please reach out when the time is right. We love you. You are part of us. Thank you for sharing your story and Rick's story.

The love and prayers of the St. Benedict Catholic Worker are with you and your family. Rick will always be with you.

The angels have met Rick and led him into paradise. "eye has not seen and ear has not heard..." I have no doubt he had a glorious entry! I pray that you , Diana and your family will draw on the peace and consolation of Jesus. Certainly, he will be missed!

Thank you, Diana, for sharing with us the unfolding of Rick's final precious hours with you. May he be at peace.

Diana, I can't thank you and Rick enough for sharing this journey with so many of us and teaching us so much along the way about how to do this mysterious thing called dying and death. I do hope we have a chance to meet at some point, if not on "this side," then on the other! Mitch and I will be there in Spirit for the vigil and service. Many blessings to your family!

Quite apart from his qualities as a theologian, I have the warmest memories of Rick as a friend and wonderful human being. Philip Sheldrake

Thank you for sharing this journey with us. We are thinking of you all and will join in prayer tonight.
