Richard C. Pollic, age 73, resident of Richland, passed away Monday at his home surrounded by family. Richard was born on his grandfather’s farm in Altmar, on October 4, 1949, to George and Virginia Pollic. He was a 1967 graduate of Pulaski Academy and Central School, and he served in the United States Army from 1969 until 1971. Richard was married to Debra Skinner Pollic on September 9, 1977. Rick worked construction for 40 years. He loved woodworking and made many items for his children and grandchildren. He also loved photography, especially taking pictures of nature. After retirement, he and Debbie loved to travel, and they made some memorable trips together. His favorites were Alaska and to see the Redwoods.
Rick had a deep love for his family, and they were his number one priority.
