Rick Wegman passed away Aug. 3, 2010. He was 76 years old. Rick and his wife Patty owned and operated the Turquoise Shop in Virginia City from 1982 until 1993. In January of this year they moved to Carson City due to Rick's failing health.
Rick loved to hunt and fish with his family and friends, but his biggest joy was the trips to the Oregon Coast with Patty and the dogs to camp, crab and just walk the beach.
Rick loved his family and leaves behind his wife Patty; daughter Vicky Guyette, Phoenix, son Chris and fiance Alaina Jacobson, Carson City; daughter Laura and husband Greg Gardner, Sun City, Calif.; daughter Connie and husband Tony Fondi, Carson City; grandchildren Jeff, Chesney, Sean, Ashley, Kelly, Tony, Jenna and Jacob; brothers Marc Wegman, Beaverton, Ore., Jon Wegman, Walnut Grove, Calif., Jim Bolander, Reno; and his best friend Irv Wolf, Sacramento, Calif.
Per Rick's request, there will be no service. A family gathering will be held at a later date.
The family wishes to thank Dr. Guy Foster and the girls at Mountain Medical Pulmonary and St. Mary's Hospice. Bless You All! Thank you for the joy you gave and the constant understanding and love.
I love you honey bun!
