Rick was an inspiration to all those who had to fight the beast of cancer. He never gave up and he always encouraged everyone to think positively.

Rick was so passionate about his love for skiing, sailing, fitness and was an avid fan of F1 Racing. Rick shared his life with so many dear friends and cherished all the memories.
