The adventurous spirit of Ricky David Jorgensen was stilled on Monday, October 27, 2025, when he passed away at the age of 73. Born on March 7, 1952, Ricky lived life on his own terms; it was always known he would not turn down a good time.

A proud veteran, Ricky served in the United States Army during the Vietnam War. Following his service, he found joy in the great outdoors and the thrill of the ride, often hitting the highway on his Harley Davidson. He was an enthusiastic traveler whose heart belonged, in part, to Jamaica, a place he frequently visited and where he cultivated many adventurous memories.

Ricky is survived by his daughter, Amanda (Andre) Rotondi, and his treasured granddaughter, Isabella. He is also remembered by his siblings, Judy Patterson (Mike Ronkoske), Leta Wick (John), and Randy Miller, and by Cynthia Borkhuis.

He was preceded in death by his parents, Jo Donna Masters and Richard Jorgensen, and his sisters, Tammy May and Gail Woodruff.

Private family services are planned at the Southeastern Wisconsin Veterans Memorial Cemetery in Union Grove, WI. The Haase-Lockwood & Associates Funeral Home and Crematory of Genoa City, WI is honored to serve the Jorgensen family.
