Rick Desloge, a reporter for the St. Louis Business Journal dating back to the 1980s, died Monday from pancreatic cancer. He was 63.
“What’s more, his office colleagues were amazed at his consistent good cheer. It seems odd to say that someone fighting such a serious illness was chipper, but chipper he often was.

“He received his journalism degree from the University of Missouri-Columbia and at the Business Journal reported on law, accounting, banking, advertising and public relations, media, venture capital, transportation, aerospace and defense and a host of other industries. In 2001, he wrote and published ‘Hell on Keels: The Saga of Motor Torpedo Boat Squadron 12: A Story of Wooden Boats and Iron Men.'”
