Richard “Ricky” C. Sistrunk April 6, 1958 – June 15, 2025 Richard “Ricky” C. Sistrunk, 67, of Edinburg, Mississippi, passed away peacefully on June 15, 2025. Born on April 6, 1958, in Leake County, MS, Ricky was a lifelong resident of Edinburg and a graduate of Edinburg High School. A devoted husband, father, and Bop, Ricky spent his life building not only homes as a self-employed general contractor, but also relationships rooted in faith, love, and laughter. He was married for 47 years to the love of his life, Pam Wooten Sistrunk. Together, they raised two daughters, Jessica Mooney (Nicky) and Jordana Jones (Daniel), and were blessed with five cherished grandchildren: Cy Mooney, Hadlee Mooney, Addyson Jones, Caroline Jones, and Cutler Jones.

He was preceded in death by his parents, Cecil and Agnes Sistrunk; his in-laws, Joe and Ruth Wooten; his sister, Lyn Scott; and a dear uncle, Charlie Chamblee. A faithful member and elder of Pine Grove Church in Edinburg, Ricky was deeply committed to his faith and church family. He was an avid outdoorsman who loved hunting, fishing, and being in nature, but his greatest joy came from time spent with his family and friends. Known for his warm smile, generous spirit, and ability to strike up a conversation with anyone, Ricky will be remembered for the way he made others feel welcomed and loved. Visitation will be held on Wednesday, June 18, 2025, from 5:00 to 8:00 p.m. at Pine Grove Church in Edinburg, MS. A Celebration of Life will take place Thursday, June 19, 2025, at 10:00 a.m. at Pine Grove Church, with burial to follow in the church cemetery.

Honorary Pallbearers include Bro. Jerry Germany, Bo Surber, Billy Wilcher, Paul Hughes, Bevon Ladner, Howard Wilcher and Earl Wilson. Ricky’s legacy of faith, kindness, and love for others will continue to live on in all who knew and loved him. Those who wait upon the Lord will renew their strength; they will rise up with wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not grow faint. Isaiah 40:31
