  3. Rich and I were childhood buddies. We used to hang out and play fuzzball in the streets of Crown Point. Walking Coldwater creek, riding minibikes together and getting chased by the cops, the usual kid stuff. Good times!
    Looking foreword to again play street hockey and ride bikes with Rich some glorious day…

  5. Rick was a neighbor and good friend while we were growing up. We played baseball and football together in high school and reconnected again while attending Mizzou. Will remember the fun we had with Mark C, Pat S, Rick V, and a host of others.

  9. We had some great times at RG and MIZZOU. Rick was a super teammate and even better friend. Nobody threw harder than Seick. He could rock and fire, i know he nailed me once when i crowded the plate.

  19. Played Koury League baseball against him. He hit a line drive over the shortstop s head, I played left field its was play the ball one hop or run and shoestring catch it. I chose the latter, caught the line drive and threw guy out at second, he was not happy. Needless to say he made me look like sissy when I had to lead off against the next inning. Told me at school it was the hardest ball he had ever hit.

  23. Rick and I meet at MIZZOU and instantly became friends. Although we didn’t see other as often as we should have through
    the years I will always consider “Sieck” as one of my best friends.

  25. I am deeply saddened to learn of Rick’s passing. He was a good friend and a great guy. I have many fond memories of Rick including that I dreaded facing him in the fuzzball tournaments at the annual Meiner’s Massacres, and that he was the only guy I knew who wore an Evil Roy Slade t-shirt! Diane, Anthony and Marissa are in our prayers along with the entire “family” of close friends who are mourning his passing. I know Rick wouldn’t want us to be sad, and is probably teeing off on the Celestial Golf Course! That sunshine we are enjoying is his smile.

  27. Rick was a great guy. I played baseball with him for many years. He had a rocket arm.

    After a game in Illinois, I was driving a car full of ballpayers home and we were coming over the bridge to St. Louis. Rick was arguing with Mike Nord (Mike later ended up playing for a Cardinals minor league team as a pitcher) about who had the strongest arm. They made a bet about who could throw a baseball over Busch Stadium. So Rick said “Billy pull it over at Stan the Man and pop out a new one (ball). We parked next to Stan and I gave him a brand new ball. He took few steps and hurls it over the top. The ball cleared the top by a lot. Busch Stadium was really high. We all looked at each other and couldn’t believe he just did it. Nord didn’t even make the attempt. We were all in shock. That was an unbelievable day. I really don’t know of anyone that coudl have pulled that one off other than Mike Shannon.

    Rick will be missed!

  31. Rick was a good friend of mine during high school and the year we shared a dorm room when he enrolled at Mizzou my sophomore year. I still remember him working out engineering stress and failure problems at his desk and I was zero help to him. He made washing dishes in the dorm cafeteria one of the highlights of my time at Mizzou. And don’t ask why two of the evergreen trees outside the physics building were shorter than the others. I was lucky to have had him as a friend.
    My sincere condolences to his family.

  41. Rick was my cousin. We grew up in different cities, and never saw him as an adult. My dad and his dad were brothers. We did meet, but we were very young. My condolences and heartfelt sympathy go out to his family and friends. I look forward to getting to know Rick in heaven.
