in Trades, Passes and Bombs
As we all know we lost a brother and friend in Rick. Anyone here who ever had any dealings with Rick know just how much of a stand up guy he was. After learning of his passing I reached out to Rick's son, and asked if we could do anything to help and I had mentioned last year 2012 secret Santa pass I had the privledge of being Rick's Santa. My request was to get one of Rick's hats as we all know how into his cigar related caps he was, with the intentions of passing the hat around to any brothers here wishing to sign the hat. Afterwards the hat will be sent back to Rick's wife Keri who has already sent me a hat and a very heartfelt letter. I'm also waiting to hear back from Rick's son to see if he enjoys cigars , if he does I was thinking adding a single stick for him. Still waiting to hear back on that part but the hat is a go. I'd like to keep this open and get the package out on Friday of this week. Any brothers interested in participating in this please feel free to sign up and PM me a goog addy for you. Thanks

    Rick helped to add only good aspects to the forum we now know and enjoy. Generosity, kindness, knowledge, and respect for the forum and all the members who are a part of it. It would be befitting that you acknowledge his membership and all his contributions. You need not ask permission.

    would Love to be apart of this, as well as add a few sticks to the box if his son would be accepting of them

    This is a great idea, I'm definitely in, and will also contribute if his son enjoys cigars.

    Just saw this and can't express how sad it is to learn of Rick's passing. A truly wonderful BOTL. I just don't know what to say. Very sad now. I would like to participate. Addy is the same but let me know if you need me to send it to you.
