Rick created a homestead in Grafton, NH with beautiful vegetable gardens and a flock of entertaining chickens. His farming roots ran deep as he enjoyed raising cows and pigs as a 4-H youth and then working on dairy farms through his twenties. He left farming for a life on the road driving trucks long distance for McLane and then ending his career hauling milk throughout New England for Dairy Farmers of America. He retired in 2024.
Rick was an avid reader and outdoor enthusiast. He loved hiking, camping and being on the water. He enjoyed long canoe trips in Canada with his dad and snowmobiling with friends. He went horse camping out West and kayaked in Puget Sound. In the last few years, he explored the South Carolina waterways with his Uncle Dan. Rick always enjoyed watching for wildlife and welcoming them to his yard.
Rick loved his family and was always willing to lend a hand. He fixed machinery at the family orchard, planted Christmas trees with his dad, cooked meals for his mom and did the heavy lifting for his sisters.
He was predeceased by his dad, Richard Fabrizio (2024), a beloved uncle, Dan Fabrizio (2025), and his brother, Mark Fabrizio (November 24, 2025).
He will be missed by his mother, Ann Fabrizio, sisters Lynn, Nancy, and Sheila, nephews Shane, Evan, Shayden and Max, niece Shayla, and 5 great nieces.
His family will hold a private service to celebrate his life.
