Rick was my husband for 38 years. He was a gentle, kind and considerate man. He believed in doing his best always, being honest and helping out. He was a fun person to be with and loved singing songs with made up words. He loved children & family and they knew he was dependable, would protect & love them.
When Rick married me, I was a widow with three children, their father died in an accident. He always considered them his and he never thought other wise. He always loved them and was their Dad. We were blessed with two more sons and a 38 years marriage.
Once he made up his mind to achieve a goal he remained focused and meant it head on. He believed in the power of prayers & loved God. He could be grumpy, argumentative, and the first to admit when he was wrong. All that he was, will always be missed and loved.
The joy and peace of our Heavenly Father is now yours. Rest well, dear husband.

Rick was a truly humble, and devoted husband and father. His love for his family and those close to him was endless and unconditional. He was a selfless man always helping others, and always with a smile!
We will all miss Rick, a true gentle man.

Worked with RV here at the VBSO and got to know a gentle giant who I very much respected. He wasn't a man of many words, but once you got to know him, he was simple, kind-hearted and very dependable. Our most sincerest condolences to his family and friends.
