Richard John Brix, of Golden Valley, age 67. God took Richard home to heaven on Monday, April 29, 2024, as his family surrounded him with love.

Preceded in death by his parents, Martha and Richard Brix, he is survived by his brother Tom, sister Cheri, his uncle Robert Brix, of Clara City, cousins and many friends.

Richard suffered far too long with cancer and the horrible effects of it. He attended Totino-Grace High School and Northwest Community College. He was employed at Parsons Electric, Equifax, Halek's, and became Service Manager for the Municipal Government in Robbinsdale.

Richard enjoyed duck hunting with his father, water skiing and ski-jumping with his longtime friend Hank Longo, and downhill skiing in Vail every year with his family. He loved his home, planting tomatoes there, the MN Twins, and playing Cribbage and "watching" the lake with his neighbor and best friend, Floyd Anderson.

Love you, Richard. Kisses. We miss you so already, but you will always live in our hearts! Please God take good care of him now until we see him again! Our thanks to the many doctors and nurses at Fairview SD hospital who took such good care of Richard, but especially to Dr. Singla. He is our hero!

Memorials to the American Cancer Society are preferred. Celebration of Life will take place Thursday, May 9, 2024 with visitation 10 AM and Mass of Christian Burial 11 AM at The Church of St. Bartholomew, 630 E. Wayzata Blvd, Wayzata.
