He served honorably in our United States Navy for a decade (he was an excellent BT). He was also a proficient athlete and boxer. He once even got in the ring with a kangaroo!
R.I.P. Rickey Wilkerson!

P.S. Thank you for our two beautiful sons, Rickie and Patrick.

Sending prayers and condolences to the Wilkerson Family on the passing of Rickey.

He was a sweet and humorous person who loved to laugh and have fun.

The Class of 1979 will definitely miss him.

May the Lord grant you the oil of joy for the spirit of mourning.
