The cross that marked Rick's grave for a year
after his death. It was made by a good friend,
who also made the miniature casket.
Rick's permanent marker with memorabilia embedded
in the concrete: his "End of the Trail" belt buckle, AA medallions,
and empty shell casings. The "vase" is an empty mortar shell.
A good friend was asked to craft a miniature "cowboy style"
casket for Rick's cremains. Unknown to Jackie or Rick,
the friend used wood he was saving for his own casket.
