A graduate of Northeastern University, Rick was a financial advisor and owner at Singleton Financial Group, former RI State Representative in Cumberland, Bellingham town moderator, recently appointed Bellingham School Committee member, and a longtime patron and minstrel member at Saint John Vianney Church, likening his drumming to Buddy Rich and having the, self-described, voice of an angel. Besides his mother who he adored, he is survived by his family who he fiercely loved, children, Christopher, Ryan, Katelyn, and Michael Singleton, his grandchildren, Madison Squibb, Christopher Singleton Jr., Layla Singleton, and Cillian Cryan.
