Rajko "Rick" Senica ObituaryRajko "Rick" Senica, of Eastlake, Ohio, passed away on Thursday, September 11, 2025, at the age of 63. He was born on April 12, 1962, in Willoughby.
Rick is survived by his brother, Michael Senica; sister, Brenda Smart; his best friend and "second brother," Scott Stewart; nephew, Andy (Samantha) Senica; niece, Katie Senica; and great-nieces, Lainey and Coralye. He was preceded in death by his loving parents, Branko and Kathy Senica (nee Schroeder).
Rick was a dedicated employee of the Cleveland Electric Illuminating Company, where he worked for more than 40 years. Known for his strong work ethic and skillful hands, Rick found joy in creating, building, and fixing. His lifelong passion, however, was cars. An avid collector and restorer, Rick owned over 100 cars throughout his life. Whether he was burning rubber or turning wrenches, he was in his element.
Above all, Rick will be remembered for the love he shared with family and friends. A special thank you goes to all who offered him friendship, support, love, and prayers throughout his journey-he was truly grateful for each of you.
Rick will be laid to rest with a private burial at All Souls Cemetery. He will be deeply missed by all who had the privilege to know him.
