Much care for you and your family in this very non- sense making time.  His genetics live forever within the family.  I am not able to make Saturday- just know Saatmans are thinking of the Greens.

Dear Tina and family,
It was with great heartache that we learned of Rick’s passing. Our best memories are of him sitting out in the backyard at your Lititz home, laughing as a whole herd of little girls ran around in the yard. He had a great laugh! Our thoughts and prayers are with you as you grieve his loss. 
With deepest sympathy,
Mike, Paula, Mark, Kathleen, and Christi Shifflet
