For a limited time, when you buy 2 or more MICHELIN Ag tires, you will receive a $75 rebate on each purchased tire. Ž

All of which is and always will be greatly appreciated. The cards, plants, flowers, food and visits from many during this time is also greatly appreciated. To all those who knew Ricky, please know you were an important part of his life. We are all now gifted with an amazing guardian angel.

Amundson-

We would like to send a sincere thank you to all those that were blessed with being a part of Ricky’s life. Although there are not enough words that can thank the friends, family, the Cancer Center, doctors and nurses, hospice, Pastor Spande and Bonnerup Funeral Services for the prayers, support, thoughtfulness and kindness through the difficult times of the loss of our dear loved one. All of which is and always will be greatly appreciated. The cards, plants, flowers, food and visits from many during this time is also greatly appreciated. To all those who knew Ricky, please know you were an important part of his life. We are all now gifted with an amazing guardian angel.

May God Bless You All! The Family Of Ricky Amundson
