Memories

Rick was my friend. I met him in at the beginning of 2015 and we became quick friends. He was reluctant to come along on that first trip of ours, but he did and everyone bonded quickly. He immediately moved down to Columbus to stay with me, so he could hang out with his new friends and get more involved in our mission. He was there with me when I got word that my brother had died. He "happily" bought up all my guns to help fund my trip to Everest. And he was loved by everyone. I still remember vividly that first trip on Mount Elbert you were like, nope... going to the tree line and that's it! When we returned in 2018 you beat us all to the top! I am going to miss you dearly Rick. The memories and moments we shared together will never be forgotten, and neither will you. Rest easy my brother. - Mike
