He was born on October 19, 1951 to Richard Archie Brimmer and Jo-Ann Beaman of West Los Angeles, CA. His father was killed in a logging accident when Richard was just an infant. his famous grandfather was Richard Dix, a movie star of the 20's, 30's and 40's who died in 1949. Richard is survived by his wife, Eileen Brimmer of Fullerton, CA; his daughter, Amanda; and one granddaughter, with another grandchild on the way. He will be terribly missed by all who knew him including his loving aunt, Sara Sue Dix of Desert Hot Springs, CA; his sister, Rachelle Nolan of Huntington Beach, CA; his pal and cousin, Greg Zamarin of Montana; his uncle, who was his father's twin brother, Bob Dix of Chatsworth, CA and his nephew, Zack Nolan of Huntington Beach, CA. Richard loved the beaches of Santa Monica, the mountains of Montana, his friends of Pioneertown, in the High Desert above Yucca Valley, and getting in the wind on his Harley. He was always a free spirit. Appropriately, his ashes will be spread over the mountains of Montana, near the home he finally found and where now his spirit is truly free. Many of Richard's friends have a bond with him that will never die. Wiefels of Palm Springs, CA handled the cremation. A Celebration of his Life will be held in Palm Springs at a date and time yet to be determined. For those interested in attending please write to Dix-Brimmer, P.O.
