I am so sorry to hear this. I baby sat Rick, Ivana and Rusty when they were little. My sympathy to the family….🙏
Never forget the night he rode his horse into the town tap
My deepest sympathy to the Rogers’ family. Rick was a kind spirit and was always relentless in teasing Ivana’s friends. I will fondly remember all the good times we had. Love you Vana, and I am praying for comfort and peace for you.
So sorry to hear of Ricks passing. He will truly be missed! He was one of the great cowboys I had the honor of working with at J&L Feeders, and Mead Cattle Company.
Many fond memories of Rick in our school days. He was one of the nicest people and a good friend to all. My sympathies to his family and know that he is now at peace.
So sorry to hear of Ricks passing. We had a lot of fun working together at Foxley Cattle Co. long ago in the seventies and early eighties. He was very talented as a team roper. He also gave me a tip on a horse at the race track in Columbus and later apologised for it.
Ivan and family, I am so sorry for your loss. May God give you comfort and peace at this time. My thoughts, prayers and sympathy are with you.
