My deepest condolences to Sheila and Rick's family. Rick was a neighbour who I met while walking our dogs when we first moved in down the street. He was always lovely and kind and we connected over a love of dogs. We always chatted, when we ran into each other, about our pups, work, kids and family. He was a sweet man who, you could tell, adored his family. I will miss running into him, catching up, and sharing some laughs. My thoughts are with everyone who loved him.

Truly a good man with a huge heart. Great at telling a story and loving his family. May you rest in peace. My condolences to Sheila and Robyn, i always will remember how much he loved you both so much. What a great husband and father he was.❤❤

I couldn't make your service today due to family commitments but I bid you adieu as you begin a new journey. RIP Rick. You always had a smile & a story & I always enjoyed crossing paths with you at work. I would have enjoyed hearing about Ireland! Condolences to the entire Scanlon family.

Dearest Rick, your passing was a shock and far too soon. You lived a full and happy life. Although our life together was short and sweet, I will cherish our time together many years ago 💖 Please wrap your arms around our daughter Robyn and around our grandchildren and give them comfort and courage during this very sad time. You have left them with a heart full of love and many great memories. RIP sweet man . You will be very missed but greatly remembered forever 💙

My grandpa was the best grandpa I could've ever asked for I love him so much and will never forget any of the amazing memories we have together. I miss watching crime shows with you, grandpa and I miss u so much. I just know you're having the time of your life up there and probably looking down at us thinking were fools for being as sad as we are but grandpa you where truly the best grandpa in the world one of the few men in my life I knew I could always trust I love you so much grandpa and hope I'll see u again one day up there. I miss u old guy ❤️

Aah, man. Words. Rick would not be at a loss for words.. First time I met Rick, he had me laughing and chuckling from the "hi, , nice to meet you." Stories! Memories! He always shared the excitement and love he had for his family by sharing the stories and memories of family times. Thank you for the honest laughs, the true joy of life you lived, the willingness to help anyone who needed and the constant reminder that life was to be lived not just walked though.

Fly high, laugh loud, smile wide and keep the beer cold and the seats hot! Put a little sparkle dust in the Bomber's corn flakes for the next 2 games!

• Love and Heart hugs Sheila, Robyn and family as well as all of your friends-family. Sincere sympathy.

Hey buddy, although I did not get to know you till later in our career, I realized what an amazing person you were. You would always go out of your way to help other people out and always welcome people into your home with open arms.

Rick, you were so proud of your family. You would always talk about Sheila and your grandkids as well as your dogs and how they meant the world to you.

We were the three amigos and now unfortunately, we are now the two amigos . You are going to be missed.

Cheers thinking about you. 🍻

Our hearts go out to you Sheila, Robyn, Doug & family. The world lost a great man. Rick was a loving husband, father, grandfather & a good friend. We looked forward to our visits together as there was always something to laugh about & be thankful for. Rick always lit up the room with his smile & his baby blue eyes! Bill & Rick had nicknames for each other. Bill would refer to Rick as " Hey Sailor!" & Rick would respond with " Hey Buttercup!" Rick was truly a selfless man who always put others before himself. We are grateful for the time we had together. He will be sincerely missed.

So sorry for your loss Sheila

You and your family are in our thoughts and prayers

Wendy and Joe

Bill and I are so happy to have had the honour of calling Rick a friend. Rick's sense of humour was one that kept us on our toes and in stitches. We will miss Rick and all the fun and laughter.
