Dear Marge. May you have Gods blessing and help in this time of sorrow. It has been quite some time ago that we shared our woodworking experiences but you and Rick have remained in our thoughts over the years. We are truly sorry for your loss.

I was so sorry to hear of Rick's passing. He was truly a great person. I always picture him when we went to visit his spinning wheel shop. He let all of us try it-I was horrible, of course! And he made it look so easy! Know there are many of is who have very fond memories of him. Blessings to all!
