Rick was a devoted man to his bride, Nancy, for over 50 years. He wasn't my bio dad but he was my spirit dad for 51 years. Rick was a good Christian man, an industrial engineer at GM Motors for over 30 years, a great friend with Terry, John, Mike, Brian, Noel and so many others. Not only were Rick & Nancy a huge part of my life but my family's. Rick was my 3 kids God father, friends with my husband and his family. He was a big part of my life.

2 years ago Rick was diagnosed with cancer, after chemo & radiation nothing improved. Then he left us. Without a will or life insurance policy and without his guidance always thinking "I'll do it tomorrow".

We are trying to raise money to pay for his funeral and to help Nancy get through the next couple months as she has to relocate and to help her have time to grieve without worrying about financial matters.

"Thank you a bushel and a peck and a hug around the neck" a quote many people have heard Nancy quote
