Rick was a true friend, a visionary, and someone who brought light and meaning to so many lives. His work with Pollinative was one of the most environmentally responsible and hopeful solutions to the declining bee population—a reflection of his belief in creating a better world. Rick had an incredible gift: he saw the potential in others, believed in them wholeheartedly, and made life fun, interesting, and full of possibility. You could never help but wonder what new idea was spinning around in his head or when you looked into his eyes, there always seemed to be a story or something he was just about ready to release! It is heartbreaking to think we won’t see him again. Rick was truly loved by everyone fortunate enough to know him, and life will not be the same without his presence. We will hold onto the memories that brought us laughter and joy and we will proudly watch as his beautiful family carry on his legacy as his spirit lives within them. Rick, we will miss you.

Dear Georgia & Family, So very sorry to read of your dad's passing. Sorry for your loss. Whenever your dad came into the office...we shared a chitchat about our families, elderly parents....he always took the time to chat...I appreciated that...he was a lovable good guy...just being Rick. I understand your Mom passed not that long ago. I wish you all the strength and comfort you need to bear this loss too. So sad.

A Legend, A Leader I’ll miss the rhythm of your voice in our weekly huddle, The wisdom you shared, calm in the midst of every team storm. Your presence was a steady anchor, Turning chaos into clarity, with a strength so warm. I’ll miss the calls, Not just for business, But to simply check in, A friend beyond the workday— Ameera, too, would wait for your ring, “Is that Rick?” she’d ask with a smile, For you never missed a chance to say “hi,” To be the first hire, At the birth of something grand, The Tusch Real Estate Group—a vision That you and Georgia built with your hands. It was an honor to walk beside you, Turning dreams into the now, To watch the impossible unfold The strength you sowed. And though you left so suddenly, A passing that words can never mend, You spoke of life with such fire, And in that, you lived with passion. There’s still work to be done— A team, forever grateful, For all you built, for all you’ve begun. We’ll carry your legacy forward, A testament to all you gave, And honor you, always.

Dear Georgia & Family: Firstly, my sincerest condolences to you and loved ones during this period. All of you have been the subject of my prayers and will continue to be. Originally, I met both Rick and Georgia through a mutual friend Jim "Jimmy" Service. We were all fortunate enough to have breakfast together and connect. Although I couldn't call Rick a close friend, I knew he had a good heart, cared about his family, and had prosperous plans for himself, Georgia and his future business initiatives. Fast forward to today, he was proven right and what I witnessed, much to my delight, was his growth and daughter's impact in the Real Estate community. Most importantly, on the lives of others. It makes me quite sad that he is gone from all of our lives, but as I have learned throughout life it is the memories we create with one another that truly endure. I will remember Rick just as we all have, and I wish Georgia and The Family the upmost love, care, support, and future prosperity. Kindest, Personal Regards, Reid Coray Mitchell
