Dick Trickle has passed away of a self-inflicted gun wound, in a cemetery. Dick Trickle called to let the 911 operators know where he would be found. Dick Trickle is gone. Dick Trickle will not be forgotten. Dick Trickle had a funny name. Sorry Trickle family for your loss, Dick Trickle will be missed. Sadly, Dick Trickle did not leave a Dick Trickle Jr.....he had the better sense to name his children more appropriately (Victoria, Tod & Chad).

From former kicker to bucket kicker, the circle of life is complete. But it just won't be the same seeing Andy's list next year, minus Summerall. George Allen Summerall, dead at the age of 82.
