Richard Baker, Medicine Hat, AB—The community of Medicine Hat is coming together in a time of deep sorrow as Richard Baker, known affectionately as "Rick" or "GOBB" (Grumpy Old Biker Boy), is expected to pass away after being on life support in the ICU. Richard has been a beloved figure, not only in his hometown of Alberta but also in British Columbia, where he was fondly known by many.
Richard’s life partner, Patty Musgrave, has been by his side throughout his prolonged battle with ill-health. Patty, who has dedicated much of her life to charity work and supporting others, now finds herself in a time of need. Unfortunately, Richard’s condition has taken a turn for the worse, and it has become clear that he will not recover. In the coming days, Richard is expected to be taken off life support, leaving Patty to face not only the overwhelming grief but also the financial strain that follows.
A GoFundMe fundraiser has been organized by Maureen Getz, along with Lorraine Kronebusch Teske and Tina Anderson Taylor, fellow board members and friends of Patty. The fundraiser aims to ease the financial burden on Patty during this heartbreaking time. As of now, $585 has been raised out of a $15,000 goal, with donations from individuals like Bob Musgrave, who contributed $200, and others who have shown their support.
The Ma’z & Pa’z Caring Association, along with numerous community members, have expressed their condolences and support through social media. Messages of sympathy and encouragement have flooded Facebook, with many urging others to share the fundraiser to reach a wider audience.
Patty has been a pillar of strength in her community, always ready to help those in need. Now, the community is being called upon to return that kindness and assist her in this difficult period.
We are deeply saddened by the expected passing of Richard Baker. Our thoughts and prayers are with Patty and her family during this incredibly difficult time.
