Rick "Rickster" Perry
Founder, Southern Cruisers Riding Club
Rick had been ill and out of work for a long time, so his family's finances
were tight and Rick's sudden passing has place them in a bit of a bind.
The link to his Go-Fund-me page is (link expired).
Rick, Rickster, Perry founded the Southern Cruisers Riding Club 20 years ago. He is loved by many Worldwide.
Rick passed away on Monday, May 21, 2018 at his Mother's residence.
His vision for a simple motorcycle riding club with no dues and no
obligations has blossomed into a World renowned riding club. From this
simple concept, under Rick's leadership, this riding club has raised over 3 million dollars for St Jude Children's Hospital and a lot more for local
charities at chapter level.
He leaves behind joyous memories of great rides and friendships.
So many have asked to donate in Rick's honor, so this account is set up to supplement his wife Vicki, and daughter Lynsey for funeral expenses and other obligations brought on by Rick's sudden passing. Any amount donated is greatly appreciated. Some chapters have donated as a group, and that is great. It's not our policy to send requests like this because we have people in need every day and that is left up to their local chapters, but Rick's vision and being our founder who brought us all together, makes this a worthy cause. Thanks in advance.
