Rick was a resident in the Hermiston Oregon area from 1954-1984, he spent several years in Alaska and settled in Buckley WA in 1987. His youth was spent loving the outdoors, teasing his sisters, playing sports, shooting, working on cars and partying with family and friends. He married wife Tammy in 1982 and was the proud father of three sons, Nicholas (Sara), Adam (Jennifer), Chase (Meghan) and three cherished grandchildren, Nyala, Harper and Bodhi (Nick and Sara).

Rick spent most of his life in the construction field driving trucks and operating heavy equipment. He was a diehard Seahawk, Mariner, Husky and Sounder fan. Rick’s passion was his boys; devotedly following them in their education and sports, his pride for them was unending.

Among his favorite things in life besides his family and being with his grandkids as an adult were family game nights, traveling, Rock and Roll music/concerts, the mountains and coast, sports, reading, cars, all holidays spent with family and friends, smooth whiskey, stout beer and great parties.
