Jill and family,

Twas just a few weeks ago that we were all having an evening meal at the Opera House in Palmyra and I fondly remember you and Rick setting at the bar, having a cold one, having a good time, laughing, and almost acting like newlyweds. You guys had it right, from the very beginning. What great memories !!!

Love from the Mahans

Jeanne and Family,

My family and I are so sorry to hear of your loss. May the memories you carry help comfort you all during this time of grief and sorrow.

Very sorry for your loss. Rick was an admirable and kind man. My thoughts and prayers are with you.

Jill & Family, Sorry for your loss. Our thoughts & prayers go out to you. May all those great memories give you comfort.

When I think of Rick McCaherty, and ALL the rest of the McCahertys. I immediately think of the 3 F's - FUN, FRIENDS, and FAMILY ORIENTED. I can still remember all those great times listening to Rick and Clyde at Soloman's Garage in Palmyra, laughing at their jokes and stories. I never saw any McCaherty that wasn't upbeat and cheerful.

May God bless Rick's soul and the entire McCaherty family. Love, Larry and Donna

So sorry for your family’s loss. Prayers are with you always.

So very sorry to learn of Rick’s passing. He was truly one of a kind...the loss of his humor, his talents and skills, his strength of character and his compassion will leave a big void in our community. Praying you find peace and comfort in your many great memories, and in the support, love and caring of friends and family.

I first met Rick more than 35 yrs ago at Betty Scheldts health club. I swear physically he still looks the same after all these years. Just a quality guy. I'm better for having known him. My sincere sympathy to the family.

Rick will be missed by many. He was always smiling and happy when we saw him. Prayers to you.

I am so sorry for your loss. Rick will be missed by many! His amazing skills as a creative craftsman were only exceeded by his sense of humor. I was lucky enough to live in two houses he helped build. He was also on my speed dial for who else could solve house maintenance issues. He never let me know what a pain that was.... We will miss an all-around good guy!

Sorry for your loss. Sending prayers.

To all the McCaherty family. I as so sorry to hear about Rick. He always said Hello, even when I had to stop and think who he was.

I know he will be sadly missed by all of you, and a lot of people who new him.

Clyde, my sincere condolences to you and your family.

I am sorry for your loss, my sympathy to you all. Rick was such a nice guy.

Our deepest sympathy for your loss. Our love and prayers are with you.

So sorry to hear of your loss. Have memories of Rick in his early years - high school and that era. My late husband, Greg, who went to school at Northwestern always had good things to say about Rick. One of my first memories of Rick is when the Palmyra group of guys used to frequent Virden on the 'Island' and at the dances in Girard. He always was a friendly guy with a smile on his face. Prayers for his entire family! God's comfort is right there, reach out for that every minute.

I was so sorry to hear of Rick's passing. He was a great guy. I remember him being a great neighbor when I was a child. And even as I grew up and moved away I would see him once in a while when I would come home, and he always had a smile and wanted to know how I was doing. I am sorry for you Jill, your children and grandson, what a sad loss.

Prayers to your family at this time of sorrow.

All,
