Not a day goes by that you are not thought of by your friends, family , but especially the children and grandchildren.  It won't be that long befoe we are all joined together again in heaven.  You left an emptiness that we cannot fill for the kids, but they are all doing well.  Until we meet again.....

Hey Rick, you are very much missed.  So sad you left us too soon.

My dad was the best person I’ve ever known. He would give you everything he owned to make sure you were ok. Words can’t describe how much I’ll miss him. He made me the man that I am today and in I’m glad I made him proud. 

Huggy (Big Rick), was a very polite and kind person.  He was his own man.  He worked hard and cared deeply for his family and friends.  His memory will never die.  It's in our hearts.   I know your with your family now in heaven.  May you rest in peace.  Fly high!

I'm not sure any words could express what a truly one of a kind man that Rick was all his life.   He worked hard, loved his family and adored his 3 children.  He was kind and funny and strong and he lived life on his own terms.  He was an honorable man and he had a way of quietly making his loved ones feel safe and valued.  He gave me some of the happiest times of my life, truly.  It's hard to conceive of a world in which he doesn't exist.  We will honor his life by keeping his stories and our stories of him alive forever.  We will carry him in our hearts every day of our lives.  Rest well, Rick.  You were and  always will be loved!

Rick Gray aka Huggy Bear was the absolute BEST Father and Grandfather that walked this Earth. I was definitely Daddy’s Little Girl! He was taken from us way too soon. Our world will Never be the same! I Love You Daddy-O! Rest in Paradise! 💔💔💔
