Rick Olson passed away on March 31, 2019, in Denver at the age of 66 after a short battle with giant cell arteritis. He moved to Summit County from the D.C. area in 2007. Rick took full advantage of the good life, skiing almost daily and golfing when weather permitted. He is survived by his brothers Robert Olson and Mark (Kathie) Olson, and nieces Alexia (Steven) James, Erica Olson, and Nicole Huth, and nephews Ryne Olson and Chris Huth; along with many close friends from coast to coast.

There will be a celebration of life in Summit County in July 2019 with details announced at a later date.
