RIP, Rick

M and I found out yesterday morning that one of our acquaintances and friend of M's family, Rick, passed away accidentally Saturday night at his Wisconsin farm. We were with him two months ago tailgating for the Vikings/Packers game. He is a Packer's fan and it was his first time tailgating. I've only met him a few times but he was fun and amusing to be around. Our thoughts and prayers are with his family and his wife, Dolly. Rest in Peace, Rick.

Richard "Rick" Walton Jr., age 50 of Baldwin, died accidentally on his farm on Saturday, December 5, 2009.
