Hi Everyone,

As you have heard, my father-in-law, Ric, passed away suddenly and unexpectedly on January 21st, 2026. He was the sole provider for his family; his wife has health conditions that have made working nearly impossible. This arrangement worked for them until his sudden passing. To our knowledge at this time, he had made no end-of-life preparations, no life insurance, and like so many of us in this current economy, also had no savings. We are asking for your support in helping us give Ric a proper service so that all who knew him and loved him dearly have the chance to pay their respects and say goodbye. Ric was a loyal, dedicated Christian, a loving friend, husband, and father. His wife has been devastated by his loss, as well as his children and all who knew him. Any funds that are raised above and beyond the cost of laying him to rest will be given to his wife to help defray living costs while she attempts to navigate life without Ric.
