  9. So sorry to hear about Ricky’s passing. He was a good man who was highly respected as a member of the Square D Family here in Asheville. I always enjoyed chatting with him and hearing about some of his fishing expeditions! My condolences to his siblings, family, and friends during this difficult time, Ricky will be missed.

  10. Ricky was a kind and gentle soul. I’m happy that I got to know him over the past several years while he was working at Advance. The cool weather today made me think of him.. Every time the weather would cool down I’d say it’s almost chili weather Ricky.. He’d always laugh and say just about.. Rest easy my friend. Us at the City of Asheville already miss you.

  16. I had known Rick since I was a teenager. I was taking machine shop at AB Tech and we had a welding class together. Stan Sluder put us together since we knew each other. We had a great time. He was always so sweet and soft spoken. Will really miss him
