Rick worked at a variety of jobs in his younger life before settling back in Pickering on Mulberry Lane. He was most proud of his years as a Crane Operator and a member of the Operating Engineers Local L0793B, and stayed in contact with his brothers.
His years on Mulberry were a great source of enjoyment for him. The rural environment so close to the city allowed him to entertain friends and family for meals, camp fires, skating parties and general merriment. 
He travelled North for his great loves of hunting and fishing – to the Stevens’ camp on the Spanish for moose hunting and Manitoulin for deer hunting and fishing. 

After meeting Jill in 2004, he decided to move to Manitoulin Island permanently. For the last twenty years he enjoyed these pastimes, volunteering in his new community, and entertaining in town and at the lake.
He was embraced by a whole new group of friends and family and was always so appreciative of how they welcomed him here. He loved his neighbourhood and the life he built in Gore Bay.

Rick was a proud member of the Legion Branch# 514 Gore Bay.
There will be a Celebration of his Life at the Branch
on September 14th, 2024 at 1pm.

Donations can be made to
the Royal Canadian Legion Branch #514
or the Mindemoya Hospital Auxiliary.
