It is with heavy hearts we share that Rick lost his long and difficult battle with glioblastoma on July 16, 2024. He left this world surrounded and comforted by those who loved him including his best friend and wife, Gemma Gatti; his loving parents, Dick and Judy Phillips; and his little sister, Lisa Geer.

Even while facing what he knew was an incurable cancer, Rick was an inspiration to the people around him, embracing life, living with gratitude and facing his illness with grace, dignity and courage.
