Born on September 17, 1959, in Randolph County, NC; Ricky was the son of the late Hurley James Maness and Wanda Jean Moore Maness. He was employed with Thomas Built Buses. Ricky enjoyed gardening, growing tomato plants, and keeping his yard and flowers looking nice. Always the jokester, Ricky loved to pick and cut up. Ricky also known as "Slick Rick" had a passion for competitive racing and he enjoyed working on his classic cars. Grilling out and spending time with his family and friends brought him joy. More than anything, Ricky loved his family, especially his grandson, Ryan aka "Hot Rod". He would call and talk to his son and grandson every day. He loved his "Lulu" with his whole heart. Sometimes he had to resort to "tough love", but he always loved.


Surviving are his wife, Alma "Lulu" Maness of the home; sons, Richard Maness (Marti), Marcos "Junior" Payne; stepsons, Simon Payne, Chancey Payne; sister, Tammy; grandson, Ryan Maness; step grandchildren, Kassidy Hammock (Jesse), Luna Payne; step great grandchild, Magnolia Hammock; and beloved fur babies, Scooby, Haylie and Sassy.
