Missing Rick!

    I think of Rick everyday.  I enjoyed taking him out for coffee to McDonalds the last few months of his life and taking him to the Holland pier to fish.
    I also appreciated that he took the time to fix my boat floor and fixed the wiring when he was getting so weak.  And the time he went with me and Larry to Silver Lake to fix the boat lift and he was upset that it took us so long to fix it.  He was always willing to help anyone and could fix anything. I miss him.   Dad Kleinheksel

Snowmobile prayers

As we have been snowmobiling lately, I remember the nights that Rick would be out there pulling the kids on the sled behind the snowmobile.  All I remember doing is praying that no one would get hurt. All I could hear was Andrew screaming all the time and I never knew if he was hurt or if  Rick was teasing him and making him chase the sled and then taking off just as he got close. That is what he did but poor Andrew was much younger and had a hard time running as fast as everyone else. Was I right?
