A good friend and a wise man whom I frequently did not agree with but whom I greatly respected died yesterday at far too young an age.

I still have a copy of his novel Little Brothers in my e-collection, but he left behind so much more work it's a shame he was taken so soon. There was so much more to come from Rick, and yet so much left to us already.

I'm raising a glass or two to Rick this evening. He gave me many hours of entertainment, but more importantly he was my friend though I only knew him from FaceBook. He was one of the first professional authors to friend me on FB when I first decided to jump onboard there.

He will be missed.

This thread is the first I learned of this. I still have the same copy of MOONBOG I was given at Christmas decades ago, it's on my desk right now.

All the best to his family and those who were close to him.
