We are shocked and devastated to hear of Rick's passing. The "Morgan" family reunion enjoyed 18 years of Rick's hospitality at Diamond Buffalo Guest Ranch. All the children called him Uncle Rick. Peter and Rick always caught up on hunting adventures while leaning on the bar. Such fun was had until the wee hours of the morning and Rick would be up making breakfast for us with a big smile. The highlight of the weekend was the sleigh ride with his horse team. Many memories were facilitated by Rick and his love for entertaining our family. To all of us Rick was "Family ".

So very sad to learn of Rick’s passing. We hadn’t seen him in so many year but do remember him well from both our years of going to school together.

Our deepest condolences to his family,

Darren and Brigitte MItschke

I am so sorry for the loss of Rick....elementary, junior and senior high. Playing sports and hanging around with all the Belfast and Mayland heights kids.

RIP RICK

sincerely Mike Tonak

Rick left us far too soon. We had many more laughs to share. The memories we have of the times spent with Rick will always bring a smile and a little chuckle, sometimes just a great laugh! We will miss you Rick.

Condolences to all of the Erismann family and to the Peters family.

I was deeply shocked to learn of Rick’s passing. I met Rick in 1978 and I have so many memories of all the good times we had from camping to helping him out at Diamond Buffalo Guest Ranch near Sundre. I will cherish all the memories of the laughter we shared. My thoughts, prayers, and condolences to the Erismann Family through this difficult time.

It is with a saddened heart to hear of Rick’s passing.

We are so grateful to have known Rick over many past years.

We as a family , ( Lilli Schumacher ) Heidi & Rick Wutzke and family as well as many others in Edmonton feel your sorrow.

We hope your family will cherish his memories you had together.

Much love and condolences to all.

Hugs and many thoughts sent to you all during this difficult time.

My best friend Chris F. just messaged me of this extremely sad news. My condolences to Rick’s entire family. Rick and I met in 1980 when I moved to Calgary from Southern Ontario. We worked together for Parker Mechanical and quickly became great friends. Not only Rick, but his entire family and his friends. I will always remember him and how I was accepted.

Again…My Love and condolences. ❤️
