Richard loved gathering for holidays and spending time with his kids and his grandchildren. He recently restored his dream truck which he was very proud of, with the help of his boys. Richard had a wealth of knowledge. He strived to teach his sons everything he knew, from life lessons and family values to wood working and driving tractor trailers. He adored his three grandchildren and supported them in every dance recital, concert or new skill. 

 

His granddaughter Leah stood beside him every step of the way throughout his illness helping Grampy. She was his little nurse, always taking care of him. They grew a special bond over the past year that we will always cherish. 

 

Richard prioritized his family. He was generous, intelligent and witty.
