Rick was an intelligent man with a gift for teaching. He enjoyed sharing his knowledge with his grandchildren, whether it was the proper way to carry a fishing pole or how to cut a limb. He was meticulous, organized, and always willing to explain things in detail. In his spare time, he enjoyed fishing, hunting, camping, and golfing. A talented artist, Rick was known for his drawings and his love of reading. He never met a stranger, often striking up conversations and sharing stories about the beauty of Colorado. Above all, Rick loved his family deeply and was always protective of them. He will be dearly missed.
