My condolences to Rudy and Melanie and all of Rick's dearest Michigan friends and all the others that enjoyed Rick's company during his exciting and joy-filled life. I had the opportunity to meet Rick at one of Olympia's fab New year's Eve parties and his kind, friendly, and welcoming personality truly lifted my spirits whenever I had the chance to visit. He will be remembered.

Our condolences to all the family and friends of my Cousin Rick. It always was a good feeling for me to know that I had family in Wisconsin. We loved our movies outings, and cooking dinners together. You will be remembered, Cousin Rick

We are so grateful that after losing touch for many years we finally got together last Summer and spent a wonderful day catching up on lost time. We talked at least once a week and was looking forward to spending more time together in the future. Our condolences to his family.

Rick was the Best Partner anyone could have! He loved to cook, entertain, play the piano, play guitar, sing, dance , fly, boat, bike, lay in the sun, work and so many more things but his greatest love was his children which he lived to leave his legacy. Till we meet again....give my mom a hug for me, she went to Heaven on the 18th, I texted you. Always in my heart.
Peace of mind is a call away. We’re here when you need us most.

Rick was the kindest man to many employees at Olympia Resort. Generous to a fault. As the owner of Olympia Resort many individuals have been able to live and thrive in Waukesha County. He will truly be missed by many.
