Marcha Ricks

February 15, 1942 - July 7, 2021

Marcha Ricks was a caring wife, mother, grandmother, great grandmother, sister, and friend. She left this world July 7, 2021 at the age of 79. She was born to Joe and Martha Coughlin on February 15, 1942. Marcha was the middle child and had an older brother, Gene, and younger sister, Sue. After attending Amador High School in Sutter Creek California, Marcia married Garry Dahl, moved to Utah, and had four children: JoDea, Kevin, Jackie, and Shane. Marcha later married Gary Ricks and had one more child, Dustin. Marcha had a free-range parenting style and loved her children's friends as if they were her own. She will definitely be missed by all who knew her. Marcha had an incredible sense of humor. She absolutely loved being a grandmother and great grandmother. Crocheting, beer, and reading books were some of her favorite things. In her later years Marcia's favorite pastime was watching NCIS and she had a huge crush on the character “Gibbs”. The family will be having a small, private memorial service. In lieu of flowers, please donate to your nearest soup kitchen or homeless shelter on her behalf.
