Ross said an autopsy this week would determine the cause of death.
Rick was a talented musician, who played all over the Sunshine Coast with his band Fine Line before retiring two years ago.
“But he’d still get on stage with his mates whenever he got the chance,” Ross said.
Rick, the former lead singer, helped his band take home $10,000 in The Surf Club Mooloolaba’s Sunny Coast Sounds competition in 2015.
Rick, 74, grew up in Victoria and was a fanatical Collingwood supporter, but even that passion paled in comparison to his lifelong love affair with wife Sue.
They fell in love when they were both 17, married in 1969 and would have celebrated their 52nd wedding anniversary this year.
