My son, Dustin Jensen and I both had the privilege of working with Rick. Me at the Clarksville Nursing Home and Dustin at Haynes. He was our Ohio guy as I’m also from Ohio and would message me “I’m going home what do you want”. He’s such a wonderful caring man and I know Deby and the kids will always have the best memories to share. I’m so sorry for your loss. Many blessings to you Deby and the family.
