With profound sadness, we announce the passing of Jerry "Rick" Anderson, Jr., a man of remarkable charisma, talent, and humor. Rick left us on June 10, 2024, leaving behind a legacy of love, and laughter, he will be remembered fondly by all who knew him.
Rick was a dedicated father who loved his children with all his heart. His eyes would light up when he spoke of them, and his pride in their accomplishments was evident to everyone. His love for his family was matched only by his passion for cooking. A talented chef, Rick delighted in preparing meals for his loved ones, his specialty dishes always the star of family gatherings. His culinary skills were a testament to his creativity, an embodiment of his love for those he cared for.
An avid motocross enthusiast, Rick shared his passion for the sport with his close friend Joe Underwood. He spent countless hours attending and watching motocross events, reminiscing about his younger days racing dirtbikes and later, cars.
We invite you to share your memories of Rick, to celebrate his life and the joy he brought to others. Please feel free to upload your favorite photos of him to the memorial page as well.
