Rick was born on April 21, 1954 in Ainsworth, NE. Rick attended school in Millboro and then graduated from Springview High School in 1972. From there he attended Springfield Mechanics School. After school he started working at the Winner Ford/Mercury Garage. Rick started his love for truck driving in 1979 with Kaiser trucking and started his long-term career with Grossenburg's – Rosebud Concrete in April 1991.
On June 12th, 1976 he married the love of his life, Diane Berger. Rick and Diane started their family in 1985 and became proud parents to four children; Brady, Chris, Heather, and Lindsay.
Rick was a man of few words but his actions spoke loudly. Family was always first for him. He enjoyed skiing, hunting, gardening, fishing, boating, camping, the sport of car racing, chaperoning for church and boy scout camps and was always taking care of his birds. Anything that required being outdoors was something that he always loved. He most recently enjoyed four-wheeling with friends and family.
Rick was an active member with the church. He enjoyed his Sunday mornings running the AV booth, passing out bulletins, greeting people with a smile, being a part of the praise team and he always looked forward to couple's club. In his younger years he enjoyed playing baseball and always looked forward to another season of Minnesota Twins baseball. He wouldn't miss a Twins game!
Although his life here on earth seemed to short; we know that he now has the best seat with our Lord.
Rick is survived by his wife of 41 years Diane, son Brady (Jena), son Christopher and wife Jordan, Heather Massingale and husband Lane, Lindsay (Anthony), and three loving grandchildren; Avery and Trinity Massingale, and Grayson Faubion (Chris) and a sister Donna Howland.
Preceded by his parents Richard and Dorothy, father-in-law Ernest Berger, brother-in-law Dennis Howland
