To Susie and all the family, I just wanted you to know that I share your loss. Although my pain can not match yours, I am hurting too. Rick was a dear friend for many years. Initially we met when he was at WSLR and I was bringing RCA acts by the station. We were pretty much instant friends. Saying hi to he and Nick and Jaybird. Then after I was promoted and moved to Nashville, we kept in touch through the occasional call or at CRS. Then interesting enough, we worked a lot of the same records when he was at Curb and I was an indie and then again when I was one of Tim McGraws managers. And then of course came Facebook. Haha. He was a master at it and loved playing those practical jokes with his funny photoshopped pics. I was one of those he would post to the pages all those funny memes and images. We didn't talk much on he phone, but kept a running conversation going through those photos we would share on each other's pages. So many great memories over those 30 plus years. Just wanted you to know that Rick was loved by so many in this crazy music business. Not just me. The conversations I had this week at CRS were a testament to that and more than once we raised a glass to his memory. I hope you feel the love that is being sent by many like me and it brings you all some peace. I am sad that I couldn't make it yesterday and today but please know that I was there in spirit and he has not been far from my thoughts. With love and peace. Tim.
