It is with immense sadness, that we announce the very sudden passing of our dear father and Popy. Peacefully in his 63rd year in his home doing what he loved doing most, watching hockey. Ric leaves behind his two children Breann and Dustin, his bubbies Laila, Olivia and Kolton, his best friend for life and the mother of his children, Mary Lou, brother Rob (Brenda), Rusty (Elga) and Ronnie (Ellie) as well as his two baby sisters Jodi and Lesli and his nieces and nephews Jason, Kevin, Chris, Tygel, Damon, Terrah, Todd, Allison, Brittney, Rikilyn, Peter, Phillip, Kyle, Parker and Shaelyn.
Ric was a very proud father but an even prouder grandfather and showed off his prized possessions whenever he could. Ric was also very proud of the many athletic endeavors, accomplishments and friends he made along the way.
Dad, my stage lights will forever be dimmed without you. Your infectious laugh will live on forever. Time to hit a home run old man. Till we meet again. – Dustin, xo
Pops, you are forever my knight in shining armour, now be off to rescue those damsels in distress. – Breann, xo
My childhood sweetheart, my love never died. – Mary Lou, xo
