He was born a son of Ira and Lorraine (Seastrand) Gilbreath on March 7, 1958 in DeWitt, Iowa. He married the love of his life, Patricia Kennedy, on May 31, 1986 in Davenport, Iowa. He was currently employed at Kimberly Car City.

Rick was a family man that loved to ride motorcycles and was an avid bowler. Last year, his wife, Patty, and he took their dream vacation to the Magic Kingdom with their grandchildren. His grandchildren were his life. Rick was a jokester, he was stubborn, and most of all, he was the life of the party.

Those missing him dearly include his wife of 34 years, Patty; children, Nicole (Phillip) Byers and Austin (Ali) Gilbreath; grandchildren, Gavin Gilbreath, Kynlee Gilbreath, and Nariah Byers; and many extended family members and friends.

He is preceded in death by his parents; brother, Doug Gilbreath; sister, Esther Gilbreath; and step-father, Don Miller.
