Rickresource Rickenbacker Forum

Anyone know how to contact Richard Burke, long-time RIC employee and production manager? Dale Fortune indicates that John Hall told him Richard move to the Bakersfield (CA) area and doesn't know how to contact him.

Help, please!

Paul...I did a white pages search in the Bakersfield area and there is a Dick Burke listed there. The 70 something age is about right..There is a phone number listed, if you go there give it a call it just might be him...

Nope. Not him, but thanks. This number was another (now deceased) man who is not THE Dick Burke we seek.

I appreciate that all of this information is, to a greater or less extent, part of the public domain.

To that end, there is little any of us can do to keep Dick Tracy, Sherlock Holmes and Frank Cannon from our door, should they be so inclined. This is especially true with this sort of technology.

I would raise the question, however, of whether there is too much information here. An honest wrong number is one thing, but as a matter of general principle I would hate to have peoples' privacy bothered by efforts that had its origins on the RickResource Forum.

Agreed. I was hoping a Forum member actually was in regular contact with D.B., but so far I've only some thready leads to go on.

Paul, print the info then Peter can delete it.

I would say door #3 I was 24 yrs. old when I worked with Dick Burke and he was 30 something..That puts him in his 60's now, so that might be him...

I meant to get his number when I met him at the 75th. *snap*

Peter, feel free to delete my post above. I have a friend (unlisted phone number, not in the phone book) whose stalker from 30 years ago sent her a postcard a year or two ago - undoubtedly he obtained her current address by accessing public domain information using a "service" such as Intelius ... so I'm no fan of theirs!

Thanks Gary.

No problem, Peter!
