We are all going to miss him, yet we know he is walking with the King.
He can't come back, but we can go to him, where he'll be smiling his biggest smile when he greets us at the gates.

Terri and I are shocked and saddened with Rick's passing. I was among the very lucky ones who got to enjoy having Rick and Scott ( Scooter) as batboys on our first Red Pepper teams in the early 70's. Getting to watch them progress through baseball and eventually having Rick as a teammate was simply the best. He was a great team player. He was loved and like his Dad, will never be forgotten.

Joyce,

Rick was a good friend and a very good man. Had the opportunity to first know him when I went to South Carolina and help train him for his District position. Don't know if he every mentioned me, but I'm Ken Spiro. Worked close with Rick here in Jacksonville as well. May the Lord bless and keep you and your family in his loving arms through your time of loss and sorrow. Although you have lost Rick, remember he is not lost but with God almighty and in his glorious kingdom. God bless you Joyce and send my condolences to your entire family. Rest in Peace, Richard.

RIP, Rick, you are dearly loved and greatly missed.

Thank you for being one of the most kind-hearted Brothers-in-Christ I’ve ever had the privilege of knowing and grateful to have called you friend.

Praying for God’s strength, comfort, and blessings for Joyce, Kelli, Ryan, Tyler and their families during this very difficult time.

You were a humble, Godly man, who repeatedly showed how closely you followed Jesus Christ by loving others unconditionally and being a Godly example to you wife, kids, and all who knew you.

Praising and Thanking God for taking care of you as you are now home with Jesus and with your Dad and Father-in-law.

Rejoicing that someday you will see your loved ones again and will worship Jesus together.

1 Thessalonians 4:13-14, “Brothers and sisters, we do not want you to be uninformed about those who sleep in death, so that you do not grieve like the rest of mankind, who have no hope. For we believe that Jesus died and rose again, and so we believe that God will bring with Jesus those who have fallen asleep in him.”

RIP, Rick, you are dearly loved and greatly missed.
