Rick was born on May 17, 1960, in Waterloo, Iowa, the son of Erwin and Dorothy (Schoepske) Thies. Rick was united in marriage to Jody Mohwinkle on July 6, 1996. He was a member of First Presbyterian Church in Marion. Rick enjoyed attending his kids' activities and woodworking, having made various shelves, a sewing table, and a Nativity scene. He was a sports fan, especially the 2020 Super Bowl Champs, the Kansas City Chiefs. Rick always had a corny, dumb joke to share with those around him.

Rick was preceded in death by his parents; aunts, Deloras Schoepske and Darlene Schoepske; and uncles, Wilbert Thies and Harold Henning. In lieu of flowers, memorial donations may be made to the Thies family. Online condolences may be directed to the family at www.cedarmemorial.com under obituaries.
