Native Washingtonian Rick Hindin passed away on March 23, 2025, at the age of 82.  A devoted son, brother, father, uncle, grandfather, and friend, Rick always put his family and dear friends first. His other passion was business, which he pursued with purpose, creativity, iintelligence, and tenacity.  Over the years, Rick inspired many with his "all things are possible" mentality, and he will be greatly missed.

Rick co-founded Britches of Georgetowne with David Pensky in 1967, opening with a sign proclaiming "Fine Clothiers Since 1967" above the door.  Rick was also a partner in Adworks with its founder, Mark Greenspun, and later in Chicken Out Rotisserie with his son, Lee.  During the last decade, he partnered in Britches Bespoke with his longtime friend and former Britches Executive, Mark Rykken.  Rick began his career in advertising at Lewis & Dubrow Advertising, sweeping the floors at 17 and learning the trade from Jack and Larry, who would become his trusted lifelong mentors and dear friends.

Born in Washington, D.C. in 1942, he attended Coolidge High School and George Washington University.  He was preceded in death by his siblings, Arnold and Carol, to whom he was deeply devoted.  He is survived by his son, Lee; his grandchildren, Bryan and Sydney; nieces, Natalie [Alan] and Jodi [Matt]; nephews, David [Kate] and Stuart; great-nieces and nephews, Leah [Stephen], Oliver [Elle], Sarah [Moy], Alex, Annie [Brett], and Gracie; his "adopted" niece, Jamie; and his former spouses, Karen [Paul], Mary Ellen, and Christine (separated).

In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to Rise & Shine Bakery in Annapolis, a charitable organization that was close to Rick's heart.
