Rickey Nielsen

Rickey Daniel Nielsen January 1, 1981 ~ January 15, 2022 Rickey was born in the city of Richmond Hill, ON and as most know, he was born a premature baby. He came into this world as a tiny beautiful, palm-filled miracle, his parents knew he’d later become a strong man in his life. From when Rickey was young up until he was an adult, he was a strong minded and well determined individual. As years went on Rickey settled down and created a beautiful family of his own. He found someone he loved ever so much and later they had three beautiful children, his pride and joys. Rickey is survived by his two beautiful girls, Emma Meade, Madi Meade and his handsome boy Thomas Meade. Rickey was a very sociable being. Always loved seeing and making those around him smile and laugh. From the odd random noises, to songs he would sing, to the compliments given to even those he didn’t know, he was always there to spread love and joy. He had such an infectious smile, one that was true and genuine. He had a passion for food, especially having a sweet tooth for candy. If there was a job that needed to be done, he’d change out of those dirty old air force ones and put those work boots on, get right to work, and get any job done to the best of his abilities. He will forever be deeply missed by his Children, Mother Corrinne, Step Father Gord, Sister Constance, Brother in Law Stephen, his Nieces Cassandra, Melissa, and Kayla, his Nephews Kirk and Adam, Aunts, Uncles, many loving Cousins and a countless number of friends that he always treasured as family. May he now reside in the heavens among our beautiful angels, his Father Rick, Sister Melissa, Cousin Nicole, Uncle Billy, and Grandmothers Gertrude and Elizabeth. Rickey had such an appreciation for arts, especially music, so to end this the best way that we all know he would want it to be, here's a song lyric from one of his many favorite songs.. “And when I'm gone, just carry on, don't mourn Rejoice every time you hear the sound of my voice Just know that I'm looking down on you smiling And I didn't feel a thing, So, baby, don't feel no pain Just smile back” ~ Eminem - When I’m Gone
