Rick Allen Rose, affectionately known as Little Rick, Pops, or Ricky, passed away on August 17, 2024, at the age of 58 in Maricopa, AZ. Born on August 17, 1966, in Norwich, NY, Rick lived a life marked by kindness, generosity, and a deep love for his family and friends.

A skilled mechanic, Rick dedicated many years of service to Intel Corporation and Verns Transmissions, where his expertise and hard-working nature were greatly valued. Rick's passions extended beyond his professional life; he was an avid Harley rider, enjoyed taking pictures, tinkering with various projects, and cherished time spent with friends around bonfires.

Rick's personality was a beacon of warmth in the lives of those he encountered. He was a giving and loving individual, always ready to help others without expecting anything in return. His interests were diverse, including a love for cars, wrestling, music, and frequent visits to the local pub. Rick also had a soft spot for animals, reflecting his compassionate spirit.

He is survived by his sons, Ron H. Rose and Robert A. Rose; sisters, Renee M. Rose and Rhonda K. Rose. Rick was preceded in death by his parents, Lucille E. Rose and Richmond E. Rose; his sister, Lisa Rose; and his grandparents, Mary Louise rose, Robert E Rose, and Linn o Kenyon, Marjory E Kenyon

Rick's educational journey began at Yuma Elementary in Yuma, Az , and continued through to Chandler JR High School, laying a strong foundation for his future endeavors.

Rick was cremated by Angels Cremation and Burial, located in Mesa, AZ. A Celebration of Life will be held on September 7 at 1 PM at the Raceway Bar and Grill in Maricopa, AZ, where friends and family will gather to honor his memory.

In lieu of flowers, contributions to support his family can be made via a GoFundMe page set up in his memory. This gesture of support reflects the community's appreciation for a life well-lived and a man deeply loved.

Rick's life was a testament to the joy of giving and the strength of gentle kindness. He will be dearly missed by all who knew him, leaving behind memories filled with laughter, love, and the echoes of a good life lived.

Rick and a very good friend of mine went to Arrowhead pool. From 12 years old Rick and I stayed friends. He is the kindest sole I know. He was always willing to lend a hand and always had kind words not matter what cards were being dealt in life. Rest in Peace my dear friend. Love you

Rick was a role model for me when it came to how to treat people and helped me become the person I am today. Without his guidance I wouldn't be where I am now. I hope others can be as humble as this man was. If you needed help he was a phone call away, no mockery of the reason for the call, no judgement,no bringing up what you should have done. He would help you out and continue on. May be a chuckle after words but he knew you learned something none the less. I will forever idle this man, my uncle. Thank you for all you stood for and fought for the better good. I love you uncle.
