Richard “Ricky” Lee Geibel

Richard “Ricky” Lee Geibel, 60, of Butler passed away peacefully on Wednesday at Butler Memorial Hospital with his brothers and sisters by his side.

He was a graduate of Butler High School and was a member of St. Paul Roman Catholic Church.

Also, thank you for the love and kindness at his recent home at Lindsdale, and Janice, for all of your 40 years of support.

The family would like to thank everyone who took care of our beloved brother. Especially the doctors, nurses and staff in ICU. A special thanks to Chelsea, for her tender loving care and compassion for Ricky and his family.

He is survived by his sisters, Shirley (Jack) Hicks of Cuyahoga Falls, Ohio, Patti (Rodger) Young and Jean (Ken) Karenbauer, both of Butler; a brother, Ronald (Maureen) Geibel of Elgin, Ill.; and a number of nieces and nephews.
