His passions included family vacations, skiing, swimming and hiking with Susan and their dogs. Rick”s favorite pastime was cruising the Gulf Islands with his family on his boat.

To the Dobson family. Rick brought much joy and laughter to everyone he met. He had a wonderful sense of humor! I enjoyed the daily teasing we gave to each other during his visits to the bank. I always gave him a hard time and asked him why he was not bringing Benny (his grand pug we called him) into the bank with him. Finally one day he brought him in, so Benny received a doggy treat and of course Rick got a candy! He will be greatly missed but never forgotten. My thoguhts are with you all at this time!

Rest in Peace Rick. You were a funny caring man who always took the time to say hello. I always loved hearing the Bob and Polly stories-you loved them so much and would tell any other dog lover about them. You will be truly missed.
