Frederick “Rick” Perkins joined this world April 15, 1956 and left us unexpectedly June 6, 2024.
He was proceeded in death by his mom and dad, Bonnie & Gene, his wife Connie, sister in law Rose, nephew JP, and grandparents. He is survived by his son, John, granddaughter, Crystal, bonus kids, Shelby, Corey, Jeff (who lovingly call him Pops) grandkids, great grandkids, siblings, Patti (Carl) Busse, Shelia (Scott) Koch, Gary (Janice) Perkins, Jerry Perkins, Terry (Amy) Perkins, many nieces, nephews, great-nieces, great-nephews and too many friends to count.
He was a loving son, brother, father, husband, grandfather, great grandfather, and many were lucky enough to call him friend. He was a dichotomy of a man. He spent his years riding too fast and too hard, but loved and cared the same way. He was always there with a helping hand and a smart butt mouth when needed.
