Rick graduated from Greensburg Community High School, Class of 1976

Richard Dale "Rick" Reed, 60, Greensburg, passed away on Thursday, May 17, 2018 at Community North Hospital in Indianapolis.
Born, January 30, 1958 in Buckhannon, West Virginia, he was the son of Harold R. and Noretta June (Brown) Reed.
Rick was a 1976 graduate of Greensburg High School. He then served in the US Army. After his service he worked at Maddox Auction Barn, then many years at BCA, and then at Rexnard in Indianapolis. Rick has enriched his family's life more than can be realized. He was a very supportive, influential, caring, and sincere person. He was held in high esteem for being a solid father. Rick enjoyed fishing and loved his coon dogs. Bless his heart, he was very passionate about politics and was an intelligent liberal living in a place surrounded by the opposite. He cared deeply about the underdog, injustice, family, and everyone's right to just be whatever made them happy. His outspoken nature, his ability to speak his truth while surrounded by so many differing opinions was an inspiration. He always stood up for the truth, fairness, and equality.
He was married to Deborah Reed and she survives.
He is also survived by three daughters, Melissa (Larry) Martin, Amanda (Elrod) Lohrum, and Crystal Rathburn, all of Greensburg; two step daughters, Adrian Housch and Monica McIntire, both of Massachusetts; two sisters, Kathy (Kevin) Menkedick and Becky (Nathan) Conover, both of Greensburg; nine grandchildren.
He was preceded in death by his parents.
As per his wishes, Rick will be buried in West Virginia. Memorial services will be held at a later time.
