Ricky was born January 23, 1964 in Union county to Viola Hahn Smith and the late Earl Watson Hahn. He owned and operated R & R Backhoe Service for 20 years. Ricky was a hard worker, and he loved his job where he was able to always be outside. In his time away from work, Ricky loved to spend time with his grandchildren; they were the center of his world. When Ricky was home, he spent a lot of time out in his shop with his friends and loved ones and his faithful dog companion, Major. Despite his health struggles, he never complained and was always willing to help everyone else first. He had a servant’s heart and loved the Lord. He will truly be missed by many.

He is preceded in death by his father Earl Watson Hahn and his sister Kay Hahn Caulder. Stanly Funeral and Cremation Care of Albemarle is serving the Hahn family.
