Rick

Rick was an old friend who I haven't seen much for a decade or more.
This might have been the last time I saw him, just over twelve years
ago when I was delivering my mother to a then-new neighbourhood bakery
just down the street from where we saw Rick. He lived by then in
Calgary, 6000 km away, and was home for a short visit. I introduced
him to my mother, we chatted, and while we did he let me take his
picture through the car window.

Rick cultivated a gruff surface, but he was a warm and loyal friend.
He died this week in Calgary.
