Rick faithfully served the Lord using his gifts of service and generosity through different ministries at his home church, Family Life Assembly of God for the past twenty years. Rick’s service to the Lord included serving as a church board member, several missions trips focused on building, leading as head usher, and a mentor to prisoners. Rick’s favorite things to do were to spend time with his family and building projects.
