We will miss you Brother. I cherish our memories and I pray for your family. God bless and keep you all during this very difficult time. Pastor Paul Collins, Harrisonburg, VA

I will always cherish the memories I have of Rick. He was on e the greatest men I had the honor to know.

Rick Locklear was a good Godly man who was able to show me love. I grew up with the Locklear boys and Ricky was always there with a smiling face and a hug.

He was a blessing to me, He lived what he preached. My prayers to the family

Donna, Jessica, Jon, Hannah and Locklear family, Our thoughts and prayers go out to you all. As I read through the guestbook it is so evident that Rick touched so many lives. His teaching, kind words, compassion, humor and his smile will be missed. He may be gone but he will never be forgotten as all who knew him can say he touched and enriched our lives in some way. He had a way of making everyone feel important and loved. We were blessed to know our dear brother in Christ. Love &...

Growing up in WFWBC Pastor Rick always made me feel comfortable and loved... Even when I had strayed away and come walking in the church door's... He would walk over a hug my neck and tell me he loves me... I am saddened for his families loss of this very good and generous man... May o God see you through this and comfort you your loss. RIP Rick Locklear. It's not goodbye it's see you later my friend.
