Richard Thom "Rick" Sielaff

We ate at his restaurant, Village Place, all the time and met him twice. Very nice man and kind to his employees. We will miss Rick and going to the Waterford watering hole. RIP and condolences to his friends and family.

We would like to give our condolences to the family of Rick. We met with him 2 days before his passing to buy one of his pups, Lacey. He was so nice and you could tell what a caring, kind man he was. We are so sorry for the loss!

My deepest condolences to Rick's family and friends.

My first job was as a hostess at The Village Place. I can see Rick in my mind right now. He was very kind and generous. For my high school graduation, he gave me a hot air balloon ride. It was an amazing experience that has stayed with me all these years. I feel lucky to have had my first work experience at TVP. I loved the team at TVP! I didn't realize it then, but now I know, that he built this great group and place to work....

Rick's personality can never be replaced. We will miss him greatly at deer camp. I can't believe we have shared our last meal in Onaway. Our love to his family.

Have worked with Rick for over 25 years in payroll. Always enjoyed speaking to him about family and his busy life. He was by far one of my favorite clients. I will miss him.

On behalf of the Clarkston High School learning and athletic community I would like to provide heartfelt condolences to Weston, Calvin, Meaghan, and your entire extended family. We got to know Wes through his terrific children, and were fortunate enough to develop a friendship with him through his work with Clarkston basketball. Wes was thoughtful, insightful, witty, and showed an uncommon dedication to support young people in positive ways. His influence will live on through his actions...

Rick, we will miss you! I have known you for 35 years, through business,(GFS) but also through our one on one interactions.
