Obituary

Eric (Rick) C. Johnson, aged 71, passed away on October 31, 2024, in Provo, Utah. Born on January 20, 1953, Rick enjoyed a simple life with a love for adventure, laughter, and a profound dedication to his family.

Rick graduated from Whittier High School and humorously referred to the School of Hard Knocks as his higher education institution. His career journey led him to a fulfilling role as a para-educator at Pleasant Grove Jr. High, where he discovered his true calling.

He was an active member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, where he participated in various community activities. Rick had a great appreciation for U.S. History. He was a sports enthusiast who cherished baseball, basketball and whatever activities his children and grandchildren were involved in.

Rick is survived by his spouse, Joey; sons Ben, Tim, Ryan, and Bruce; and grandchildren Maya, Serina, Boston, and Gabriel. He was preceded in death by his parents, Cliff and Thelma (Duell) Johnson, and birth parents, J Gordon Bennett and Marjorie (Quiggle) Singer.

A service to celebrate Rick's life will be held at The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, located at 1674 North 200 West, Orem, on Saturday, November 16th from 12:00 to 3:00 PM.

In honor of Rick's compassionate spirit, the family requests that in lieu of flowers, contributions be made to support the Homeless, aid our First Responders, or pay for school lunches through the Utah Lunch Debt Relief Foundation. These gestures reflect the kind-heartedness and generosity that Rick exemplified throughout his life.
