Obituary

Casco Richard Joseph Card, 68, of Casco, ME passed away on Saturday May 12, 2018 at Mercy Hospital surrounded by his family. He was born October 27, 1949 in Portland, ME the son of the late Lester S. and Maria L. Card. "Rick" was a graduate of Cape Elizabeth high school. He was a skilled carpenter who specialized in historic renovations in the downtown Portland area. Clients knew him as the "Magic Man" as he always built what seemed impossible with a touch of his creativity and unique character. Though he was a brilliant and inventive carpenter, Rick would want to be remembered as a passionate guitarist and lyricist who wrote twenty six original songs and spent his Friday nights creating music with his devoted band mates. Friends, family, neighbors and clients knew Rick was the man who they could rely on; always finding a solution, always recognizing the good in a situation. In his latest years, Rick enjoyed time as the Captain of his pontoon boat on Sebago Lake with his family and friends. In addition to his parents, he was pre-deceased by his brothers Douglas J. and Peter J. Card. Surviving in addition to his wife of 34 years Vicki L. (Cole) Card, his daughter Risa M. Card "Monks" of Raymond and beloved grand-dog Riley-Sue, siblings, Luisita J. Smith of Durham, Raymond J. Card of Portland, Joseph R. Card of Topsham, Linda Shosky and Titan Rodick of Washington State; and several nieces and nephews. The family would like to express their gratitude for the compassionate care from the staff from Oncology, Emergency and ICU at Mercy Hospital. A special thank you to Doctor Roger Inhorn and nurse Jenny Converse for their loving care and support. A memorial service will be held at 4:00PM on Saturday May 19th at the Windham Chapel of Dolby, Blais & Segee 434 River Rd, Windham.
