Rick Foster, 62, of Mena, Arkansas, died on December 14, 2020 in Ft. Smith, Arkansas. He was born on June 12, 1958 in Mena, Arkansas to the late Jerry and Wanda Foster. If you met Rick for the first time, you instantly liked him. He made you feel comfortable, like an old friend. He was generous of himself, always thinking of and reaching out to others. Like his love for the Lord, he openly and unashamedly expressed a sincere warmth to all those around him. He was a loyal son to his parents for whom he cared deeply. He was a devoted employee who worked hard and was grateful for having a job with RCD Warehouse that enabled him time to enjoy the things he loved. He was an avid fisherman, enjoyed hunting with all his deer camp buddies, camping and laketime with his wife whom he lovingly referred to as “LynnBell”, family and cooking. He was known for his famous deer poppers. His fun loving and humorous personality made you just want to be around him.
