All other accomplishments paled in comparison to his son Alex. Rick always said, “Alex is the best thing I’ve ever done”. Anything son Alex wanted to do, Rick enjoyed. From coaching his baseball or hockey games to seeing his school choir concerts to taking cross country trips with Alex to visit family or conferences. Alex was his world.
