Rick was a hardworking man that began working as a young teenager and continued working for various places like MacArthur’s Towing, Elswood Distributors, Dominion Lumber and Dominion Tanners as well as other laborer jobs. Rick did whatever was needed to provide for his family. In May 1988 Rick was the victim of a criminal attack which left him with injuries and some paralysis which confined him to a wheelchair for the remainder of his life. However, this did not stop him from continuing to living his life and loving his family. Those that knew Rick, know that he was a generous, loving, thoughtful man that would help anyone that needed help. He leaves behind so many cherished memories with everyone that crossed his path.

You never said I’m Leaving

You never said goodbye

You were gone before we knew it,

And only God knew why,

A million times we needed you,

A million times we cried

If love alone could have saved you,

You never would have died.

In life we loved you dearly,

In death we love you still

In our hearts, you hold a place

No one can ever fill

It broke our hearts to lose you

But you did not go alone

For part of us went with you

The day god called you home.

“Rest in Peace Dad” We love you
