Rick was the fourth child of six siblings however he maintained a much higher profile through his kindness,sense of humour and quick wit. Typically when at any social gathering although initially quiet Rick would start telling jokes then evolve into telling entertaining stories.His wit propelled him and if someone should ever question his narrations he would quickly extend his arm out straight and then slowly bend it back over his head  while twisting his other hand. His reply...."no sense going to the river,theyare biting right here!"

This was my dear Brother Rick, he is gone but never in our memories or in our hearts.
