Rick Divel Obituary

Visit the Keizer Funeral Chapel website to view the full obituary.

Our hearts are broken to share that our wonderful brother, Rick Divel, passed away on April 21, 2025. Rick was born to Richard and Donna Divel on October 9, 1968, in Salem Oregon.

He was passionate about the outdoors, constantly hunting, fishing and enjoying the great open spaces of Central Oregon. He will be sorely missed by his faithful dog Cooper. He was an RV Maintenance Manager. His kindness for others inspired him to become an organ donor. Rick is survived by his sisters Cindy Divel, Sandy Theis, Julie Nordline and daughter Kassi Divel.

His presence in our life was a gift, and his memory will continue to guide us. And even though he is gone from our sight; he will never be gone from our heart, and our mind.

To plant trees in memory, please visit the Sympathy Store.
