Mourning the Loss of One We Love

The staff of Miles Funeral Home is heartbroken by the sudden loss of our beloved owner, funeral director, mentor, and friend, Rick Mansfield.


For many of us, Rick was far more than our employer. He was a trusted leader, a compassionate teacher, and a caring presence whose kindness touched our lives every day. His dedication to the families he served and the community he loved set an example that inspired all of us.


As we grieve this tremendous loss, we have found great comfort in the countless messages, prayers, cards, visits, and expressions of sympathy we have received. The outpouring of love from the community has been a powerful reminder of the many lives Rick touched through his generosity, professionalism, and genuine care for others.


While our hearts are heavy, we are deeply grateful for the support and kindness extended to us during this difficult time. We thank you for keeping Rick, his family, and all of us at Miles Funeral Home in your thoughts and prayers.


With sincere gratitude,

The Staff of Miles Funeral Home
