I just received this news today. I have no words to even say how much this hurts me. To Wanda, my deepest condolences. I loved Rick so much, as a colleague in the Fight, as a gentle, marvelous human being, as a brilliant humanist and scientific mind. His spirit will always be with me. To the community, I am sorry I have not been with you for a while, working on my health and recovery on my own. But I have not loved any of you any less.

I am at a loss for words right now.

To Rick....Squeak, I say, Squeak, Compaņero. Always.
