Rick’s been a Holcomb Clamper for 16 or 17 years.  Lived in Crestline, long time Harley rider. He was a truck driver for most of his life.  His long time Widder is Kim Herington. Her dad was a Clamper and he passed just last October so she’s lost both her dad and her longtime partner over the last 6 months. Rick was killed in a one car auto accident in the San Bernardino Mountains on Highway 18 on Thursday April 30. I do not have any other details. Rick was about 54, 55 years of age.

I believe Bill became a member of the De la Guerra y Pacheco chapter in or about 1995. As long as he was physically able, he enjoyed participating many events with both chapters, though in the last few years he was only able to attend the local chapter’s dinners.
