[br][br]Richard "Rick" Duane Lindburg left this world peacefully on January 20, 2016 after a courageous battle with Parkinson's.
Rick was born on January 18, 1942 in Mackay, ID to Roland and Helene Lindburg. Upon graduation from the University of Wisconsin he was hired on at The First National Bank of Missoula where he met his wife Carol, they married in 1972. The bank changed ownership in 1988 causing another move to Newport, WA where Rick worked for the Pend Oreille Bank in 1989.
After his Parkinson's diagnosis in 1990 Rick took a retail position at the local Texaco. Conversing with the locals and travelers passing through was a tremendous joy to him.
You never doubted the love that Rick had to give, always true and all encompassing. He touched the lives of so many people with his genuine smile, his unwavering kindness and his trademark sense of humor, which he admirably held strong to all the way to the end.
Rick is survived by his spouse Carol Lindburg, his children Jason S Lindburg and Mary B McDirmid, grandchild Charlie E McDirmid and sisters Karen Gustafson, Joanie Bertram, and Bethene Sussman
A celebration of his life will be held on Saturday January 30th, 2:00pm at Kelly's Restaurant and Lounge, 324 W 4th St, Newport WA 99156. Memorial donations can be made to The Michael J Fox Foundation for Parkinson's Research.
