Scott H. Ricker age 45 of Franklin died Saturday, December 8, 2007 unexpectedly and peacefully while on a hunting excursion on Beaver Lake Mountain in Sussex County. His passing took place in his favorite location which was the great outdoors.
He was born in Paterson and had lived in Wayne before moving to Franklin eleven years ago.
Scott received his formal education at Albert Payson Terhune Grammar School in Wayne and at Passaic County Vocation Technical High School in Wayne.
He served in the United States Army for four years and was stationed in Germany.
He worked as a Plumber for Plumbers Union Local No.14 in Lodi.
Scott will always be remembered by his wife, mother, sister, uncle, nieces, nephews many sisters and brother in laws and a host of friends as a “Beautiful Person”. He had this wonderful gift of personality that he shared in many positive ways with those he knew. Happy go lucky is perhaps a good handle for his inner nature that caused him to be a “Nice Guy”.
Scott and Kathleen loved each other more than anything else and had a wonderful marriage together that they considered a “Gift of Togetherness”.
His life dream hobby was hunting and the great outdoors. He enjoyed the sport of hunting and fishing. He would go to lengths to pursue his sports including trips to the Alaska and Canada.
He also belonged to the Safari Club International and would schedule safaris to Africa to hunt zebra, waterbuck and many other animals. He had completed two safaris and was planning his next prior to his passing. His home has on display many trophy mounts of his catches which he himself had prepared in many cases.
Sadness struck his life last year when his long faithful hunting companion a black labrador retriever “Lady” passed away.
Surviving are his loving wife Kathleen (nee Konecke) Ricker; his sister Andrea Richlin and her husband Raymond of Dushore, Pennsylvania; his mother Marven Ricker of Wayne; his uncle Thomas Dunkerley of Saint Peter Beach, Florida; one niece Geraldine Richlin of Dushore, Pennsylvania; two nephews Raymond Richlin III and Jacob Richlin all of Dushore, Pennsylvania.
Those planning an expression of sympathy in Scott’s memory are asked to consider the St. Jude’s Children's Hospital, 501 St. Jude Place, Memphis, TN 38105.
