November 12, 1974 — April 16, 2012

Ricki Lee (Giar) Wallin, age 37, formerly of Red Wing, died at her home in Stockholm, on Monday, April 16, 2012. Ricki was born November 12, 1974 in El Paso, Texas, to Linden and Elaine (Kenitz) Giar. She graduated in 1992 from Red Wing Central High School. On November 26, 1995 she married Jeremy Wallin and they lived in Red Wing and later in Wisconsin. She had worked at the Red Wing Health Center, was self-employed cleaning houses and for the past five years, has been at Sargent's Nursery, where she greatly enjoyed her job in landscaping. Ricki was quite artistic, whether it was in her landscaping work, or through her painting and sewing. One of her favorite things to do was quilting with the girls at Cornerstone Community Church. As a member of the New River Assembly God Church, she was very active and enjoyed her work with the Sunday school children. She was also able to partake in a church mission trip to Guatemala, an experience that she cherished and thoroughly enjoyed. Another past time she loved was a good day of fishing. Ricki was great "people person" and was known to give a helping hand whenever it was needed.

She is survived by her husband, Jeremy Wallin; daughter, Kayla; mother, Elaine Giar; 3 sisters, Samantha (Corey)Novek, Courtney (Bob) Horne and Tylor Molgard; nieces and nephews, Vanessa, Jordan, Angie, Austin, Brittany, Madelyne, Dillan, Evan and Tyana and aunts and uncles.
