Richard (Rick) Lee Weldon sadly left us on January 31st, 2023, at the age of 72 after a hard fought battle with cancer.
Rick retired from Arkham and was an active member of the Gallatin County Fish and Game Club. Rick will be greatly missed for his intense passion for University of Kentucky sports (especially basketball) and his love of creative storytelling. He never met a crossword puzzle he couldn't finish!
He is survived by his loving wife of 41 years, Claire, along with his children Ric (Sam), Sean (Kaitlyn), and Ryan Weldon.
In lieu of flowers, the family requests that donations be made to the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society.
