Dearly loved younger son of David and Cate MacKinnon, loving and adored partner of Kate Goschnick and adoring father of Jack, brother of Anthony and brother in law of Christine.

Passed away suddenly at home on March 15th 2020.
Dearly loved fiance of Kate and much loved father of Jack.

I was supposed to spend the rest of my life with you
And then I realized….you spent the rest of your life with me.
I smile because I know you loved me till the day you went away.
And will keep loving me…till the day we’re together again.

Love you always, Kate xo

I miss you Daddy
You never said I’m leaving
You never said goodbye
You were gone before I knew it
And only God knows why

A million times I needed you,
A million times I cried.
If loved alone could have saved you,
You never would have died.

In life I loved you dearly,
In death I love you still
In my heart you hold a place.
That no one could ever fill.

Lots of love, Jack xo

MacKinnon – Richard (Rick)
Very much loved and respected son in law to be of Dianne and Kerri Goschnick.

the memories and good times that we shared together.

  7. Everyone who knew Rick has lost a part of their lives. Some a little, some a lot. When I think of Rick it makes me smile knowing that all that have known him have gained something in their lives from Rick being a part of it. So sad to see you go Rick, but truly blessed for the memories whilst you were here.
