Richard Oldson, affectionately known as Rick to friends and family, tragically lost his life following a fall from an oil rig, leaving his loved ones in deep sorrow.

At just 35 years old, Rick had built a beautiful life with his wife Chandra and their one-year-old child, Ricky. Known for his hard work and dedication, everything he did was for his family’s future.

Rick had dreams of expanding his family and creating a small farm with goats, chickens, and a peaceful life in the country, a vision he had been actively building. His untimely passing has left Chandra to navigate the challenges of parenthood and daily life without her partner.
