Roy Northup
Today
we received the sad news of the passing of an Olivas
Park/Links legend, Roy Northup. He passed away on Monday,
Oct 7. The family is working hard on arrangements. This is
what I know at this writing:
A
memorial service is in the planning for the next few
weeks. Details to be emailed on this when available.
Like
many of you and many more in the Men's Club, we have
literally hundreds of great Roy stories. For myself, even
more than the anecdotes, is my eternal thanks for his
assistance, wisdom, and participation whenever called
upon. He is one of the MOST GENEROUS people I have ever
encountered. Only wish I had one more chance to tell him
so...
With
Heartfelt Condolences,
Brad

Rich Guzik
The local golfing community lost Rich Guzik on April 18,
2022. Rich was a Life Member of the OLMGC and we will
miss his counsel and love of golf. He served on the
Board of Directors of 5 local men's golf clubs
(simultaneously) at Olivas Links, River Ridge and
Buenaventura golf courses. One of his many contributions
was to build up the scholarship programs at each of
these clubs. This awarded many young men and women in
local high school golf programs money for their college
education.
Rich, always a stickler for the rules, provided his
wisdom and thoughtful words on many an issue over the
years. We all enjoyed his wisdom, humor, hard work and
competitive drive and he will be missed!
"I’ve
experienced many different emotions at O.P. over the
years. Sadness in seeing our course plowed under,
anticipation on its return, vindication (see greatest
moments), my first Sunday morning back 9 with my son.
And who could forget those 19th hole celebrations. Ours
is a great club and it has truly been an honor to serve
our Board of Directors." --Rich Guzik 2012
Former OLMGC Board Member
John Clay, died of complications from
pneumonia on Wednesday, August 7, 2019, in

Andy DeSilva
Andy DeSilva served as President of former OPMGC and OLMGC
