Rick Elhart Obituary

Published by Legacy Remembers on Feb. 26, 2026.
Glendive - It is with sadness that we announce the passing of Rick Elhart age 71, formerly of Helena, on February 12th, 2026. He, along with Karl Dorr of Great Falls, faithfully served the area as the AAL/Thrivent Financial representatives. They were a wonderful team and together, they made a big difference in people's lives by helping them plan for their futures. Rick will be greatly missed by all who knew him. He is survived by his wife Susan, daughters Kate & Penny, as well as four grandchildren. There will be a memorial service held for Rick at Zion Lutheran Church in Glendive, Montana on Thursday, March 19th at 11am. Also, there will be a celebration of life service at Our Redeemer's Lutheran Church in Helena on Friday, June 12th at 10 am with a luncheon to follow both services.
