Obituary
Fredrick William "Rick" Lacey III, 63, died September 2, 2018 in an automobile crash. He is survived by his loving wife, Ann; his 5 children, Clifford Lacey, Pamela Holmes, Gerrald Lacey, Marsha Cannon, and Marjorie Tyler; their spouses and 11 grandchildren; brothers Thomas, Kenneth, and Peter; and a host of extended family.
Rick was born in Bronxville, NY, raised in Kenilworth, IL and had been living in Lake City, FL since 1990. He was employed as a truck driver by G&S Wholesale Nursery at the time of his death.
Rick was a devoted Christian since he gave his life to Jesus as a young man and had a great love for his fellow man. Although he described himself as a hermit who cherished his time away from society, his disarming and congenial manners attracted friendships from far and wide with no regard for social status. He will be greatly missed.
Services were provided by Mizell Funeral Home in Lake City and he was buried on Friday, Sept. 14 at Forest Lawn Cemetery. A GoFundMe account has been set up to handle funeral expenses and to provide for Rick's widow at https://www.gofundme.com/mvc.php?route=category&term=rick%20lacey.
