He loved riding his Harley, with the wind in his face and the sun on his back. Rick had 3 children, Becky, Ryan and Erin. There is no headstone, his ashes are placed near his father's headstone. Rick died of throat cancer. I thought of you with LOVE today, but that is nothing new. I thought about you yesterday and days before that too. I think of you in silence, I often speak your name; But all I have are memories that are captured in a frame. Your memory is my keepsake with which I'll never part, God has you in His keeping, but I have you in my heart. MY LAST RIDE Do not cry for me I'm on my last ride. There is a God in heaven they have not lied. You will feel the brilliance of the light upon your face. Maybe you will bring your bike to this marvelous place. If not you may take a ride with me. And once more happy we will be. So when you start to feel sorrow. Know there is a tomorrow. And I am as happy as can be. No more pain and agony for me. So dry your tears and put a smile upon your face. Because Gods Son died for us, there is this thing called grace. It lets me ride to this wonderful place. So I will wait for you because I know I'm in Gods space. I will see you cry, and I will see you laugh. But this is only the beginning of the first half. I will wait in heaven for you to come home with me. You see this is were God wants me to be. For in time you will see me again. I will save a place for you until then. So do not cry for me I'm on my last ride, There is a God in heaven they have not lied.
