Ricky Spaude Obituary Spaude, Rick E. Goodbyes are not forever. Goodbyes are not the end. They simply mean I'll miss you until we meet again. "To live in the hearts we leave behind is not to die" On July 2nd, Rick Spaude passed away suddenly, and heaven received a very special gift. When you see a father with his kids, or holding his wife's hand, think of Rick. When you see a boat with a big catch inside, think of Rick. When you see a hockey game, a beautiful landscaped yard, and a smile that brings brightness to you, think of Rick. When you volunteer, help someone when no one is looking, think of Rick. When you meet someone who would literally give the shirt off their back, who truly cares how you are when they ask, and always has a smile on their face, think of Rick.
