Richard (Rich) Todd
Born February 5, 1951
Died March 6, 2022

Rich lived in the Fresno area until 2000 when he moved here to help his sister, who was going blind. The first time I heard Rick sing I turned around and asked him to marry me. He had the most beautiful singing voice I ever heard. I was kidding at the time but history tells a different story. We married in September 2002.

Rick learned to love cats and cruising. That could have been a deal breaker for me. We went on over a dozen cruises together. He was always up for the next adventure — including camping twice, which he didn’t like.

Rick was a very kind, loving, generous person. He spoiled me rotten, which we both loved.

Rick went to be with the Lord whom he loved. He is well and free from pain for the first time. I cant wait to see him again someday. I miss him terribly. Life isn’t much fun without him. It’s hard to sum up someone’s life in a few paragraphs. He was a wonderful, hard working man.

There will be a memorial for Rick on April 19 at 11 a.m. at Lifehouse Humboldt Church, 2734 Hubbard lane, Eureka

He is proceeded in death by his mother Alene, father Merle, sister Linda Osborn, son Shawn and his grandparents.

He is survived by his wife Margie Omstead, his children Tim, Leslie and Micah, aunts Sue and Kay, nephew Ryan.
