So sad to hear this. My heart goes out to his family and friends.
Rick – and his life partner, Jeff, and I were very close friends when we lived in Los Angeles. I am beyond stunned and shocked by the news. My heavy heart and prayers go out to Rick’s family – and Rick’s Ft. Lauderdale extended family. I share your pain devastation. Rick will remain in my heart – until we meet again. I love you my friend . . .
