He is a 1973 graduate of Renfrew Collegiate Institute and joined the Canadian Forces in 1974. He has a Science Degree from Troy State University and completed the United States Air Force Command and Staff College in 1989. Rick's tactical call-sign was Ziffer given to him by a class mate who, in jest, couldn't pronounce or spell his last name and thus the easier handle. After 20 years as a fighter pilot Ziffer retired with the rank of Lieutenant Colonel in 1994. His post service activities included property management and development.

They have two outstanding boys and three grandchildren and counting. Life is good....view less
