Richard Charles Biscay

November 1, 1947 - April 17, 2024 Richard Charles Biscay, born November 1, 1947, passed peacefully, surrounded by his family, on April 17, 2024. The son of Jeanne Biscay and St. Jean Biscay, a first-generation French immigrant, Rich was born and raised in Oakland, California. Rich graduated from Bishop O'Dowd High School and attended UC Berkeley. He graduated from UCLA Medical School, and proudly shared stories of his days as a student--like when he lived off of a single canned ham for weeks at a time to make ends meet! While at UCLA, Rich met his wife Brooke; they were celebrating their 50th year of marriage this year. For 42 years, Rich dedicated his life to serving as an emergency room physician in the South Bay, with 27 of those years spent as Director of the Emergency Department at Robert F. Kennedy Medical Center. His work ethic and care for his patients inspired many, not the least of which were his daughters, Hillary and Cameron. Rich likewise took great pride in their accomplishments, and cherished visiting and rooting for the University of Michigan, USC and Harvard, where they studied and competed in sports. Rich's other passion was golf. A long-time member of Palos Verdes Golf Club and Spyglass Hill Golf Club, Rich's friendships and memories from both were a source of great joy for him. Rich's legacy of love, dedication, and service will live on through all those whose lives he touched. Rich is survived by his devoted wife Brooke, daughters Hillary and Cameron, son-in-law Maik Twelsiek, four grandchildren, and six grandpups. A private family mass will be held in his honor. Donations may be made in his name to the Peninsula Committee for the Children's Hospital, PO Box 801, Palos Verdes Estates, CA 90274.
