My deepest condolences to the family and friends. He was a good friend to my family and me. He was always cheerful and quick to crack a joke, always there to help. I really miss my friend. He left too soon.

Rick has always been someone that would be able to find something relatable and be able to spark up a 30 minute, sometimes hour long +, conversation out of nothing, automatically making you feel like you had a new friend. One of the many qualities that stand out that I admired about Rick. Especially when I switched over to a new team, he took me under his wing and began teaching me all that he knew, all the while, sharing funny stories and genuinely making me feel a part of the team and helping me understand my importance. Thank you Rick for being that friend to all of us. Praying for you, we will miss you, you are one of a kind.

Rick, your kindness and joy was unmatched. I will miss you.

Rick was a very kind person and friend, and I appreciated when he would always ask me, How's your Wifey. We will truly miss you Rick and our sincerest condolences go out to your family.

Our Deepest Condolences

On behalf of my mother, Victoria Melendrez, and myself, Milagros G. Monroy (Julie, as Rick knew me), we would like to extend our heartfelt condolences to the family and loved ones of Rick Biggs.

I had the privilege of meeting Rick through my dear friend Terry Ojeda, who was married to Rick for several years. I was honored to participate in their wedding ceremony in 2012, which was a beautiful occasion. Over the years, I have fond memories of spending time together, especially during our annual Christmas Chocolatada at my home, where we all gathered and shared laughter and good company.

Rick was always a kind, caring soul, and the warmth he radiated was felt by all who had the pleasure of knowing him. His presence will be deeply missed.

As we reflect on the times we spent with him, we will carry those precious memories in our hearts forever. May Rick rest in peace with our Heavenly Father, God, and our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ, in Heaven.

With deepest sympathy,                                                                                         Victoria Melendrez & Milagros G. Monroy (Julie)

Rick, you were always so kind and I am saddened to hear the news of your passing. Your constant presence and willingness to stop and catch up with me and everyone in the building is already missed. May you rest in peace. My condolences and prayers go out to the Biggs family.

Rick had a gentle and kind spirit, grounded by a fiery honesty that made every conversation real. I will always treasure our talks about the magic of cats which was something he brought both humor and sincerity to. Even when we disagreed, we somehow ended up laughing together by the end of the day, which says so much about who he was. I will miss his jokes, his kindness, his authenticity, and the big, genuine hugs he greeted me with whenever we saw each other.
I am grateful to have known him, and grateful for the moments he shared with those around him. He will be missed by many.

Rick, your enthusiasm for everything you did, your willingness to lend a hand, and your genuine desire to be a friend made you a truly valued member of our team. Your positive spirit and kindness will be deeply missed, but never forgotten. Our thoughts and prayers are with your family and loved ones during this difficult time.
