Rick returned to Montague every year and joined us to celebrate his grandfather, Fulton Campbell, at the Fulton Campbell Memorial Run. Rick started the race, BBQ'd dozens of burgers and hot dogs, then hung medals around the necks of the top runners. Can't imagine the Fulton Campbell without him.

Our condolences to Rick's family, all who loved him and all he loved.

Another hot, sunny Fulton Campbell Memorial Run

It was sunny and 21 degrees.
