Richard Lee Lunquist, age 78, passed away on April 9, 2023 after a short battle against Stage 4 Lung Cancer. Even though the cancer was aggressive, it never was able to touch his heart or love for others.

Rick is survived by his wife Paddy, their “fur kids” Bear, Blue, Flowers, Zuzu’s Petals and Starbuck; his sister Laura and his childrenEric and Kristy. His cheerful attitude, and deep trust in the Lord will be missed by everyone who knew him.

An internment of ashes will be done at Jefferson Barracks later this month.

Any donations in his name are asked to be made to Best Friends Animal Sanctuary or to Cancer research.
