He was born June 30, 1952, in Daviess County to the late Worden and Marvadene Rhinerson Vanover. Rick loved his family and enjoyed spending time with his children and his many grandchildren. He had a passion for working with his hands, whether it be working on cars, especially his 1965 Buick, growing his vegetables in his garden, or spending time woodworking and building swings. Rick also loved to talk on his CB, and play cards, cornhole, horseshoes and washers.

Along with his parents, he was also preceded in death by a sister, Sharon Hester; and a son-in-law, Joseph Ashley Sr.

Rick is survived by his wife of 50 years, Frances L. Payne Vanover; a son, Joseph R. Vanover Jr. (Hadley Johnson); his daughters, Richie L. Brumley (Andy), Sandra A. Vanover-Ashley, Shannon L. Kunce, and Regina R. Vanover (Melvin Miller); 17 grandchildren; 13 great-grandchildren; and 3 sisters, Janice Dixon, Rayda Sampson, and Deanie Gaston.
