Newton South High Class of 1971 and Montserrat College of Art
Sad news, Ric died on January 3, 2014, after a massive heart attack on December 29, 2013, when he was placed on life support. Ric had been living in Plymouth, MA since 1995. There will be a memorial service for him on Friday January 31, organized by the Plymouth Council on Aging, where he worked teaching drawing and photography, at 44 Nook Road, (take route 3 to exit 5 in Plymouth). The memorial service starts at 1pm. Ric is survived by his sister, Karen Hall and her husband Stuart, who live in Maine. Ric's lifelong Newton friend Bruce Wenning was with him when it happened.
I'm posting a few links and hope to add an update after the event tomorrow. Ric was my friend since I was 14, and we had been close on and off over the years, and I had hoped to keep this friendship alive deep into old age. I will miss him.
