Rich Saulsbury
Thomas Richard "Rich" Saulsbury was the youngest child of William "Bill"& Lucille "Morgan" Sauslbury. Richard was born in Lexington Nebraska and graduated from Lexington Catholic High School. Rich married Kathy Halmiton in Oct. 1969 they had one daughter. Rich married Leigh Campbell in 1979, they had 4 children.
On Wednesday, March 18, 2009 at around 3:00 PM, members of the Colorado Springs Police Department were sent to 2120 Cheyenne Canyon Road regarding the discovery of some bones. It was determined that personnel from the City of Colorado Springs Stormwater Enterprise were conducting a routine cleaning of a storm sewer catch basin at that location when they spotted what they believed to be some bones. They suspended their activities, and notified authorities.
As the investigation into developing the identity of the remains continued, they were determined to be male. Among many other activities, including DNA submissions and other investigative efforts, members of the El Paso County Coroners Office coordinated the preparation of a forensic "bust" with facial features. It was planned that this bust would be made public, and could perhaps lead to the identification of the individual. Once completed, detectives from the Violent Crimes/Homicide Unit viewed the bust. Detective Derek Graham, a tenured Homicide Detective since July of 1995, believed he recognized the bust from a missing persons case that was initiated in July of 1996. Further delving occurred, and in January of this year, the remains were positively identified through DNA as Thomas "Richard" Saulsbury of Colorado Springs. Mr. Saulsbury was 49 years old at the time of his disappearance/death.
Rich was buried Saturday August 7, 2010.
