Richard was a man of many skills. A truck driver and painter by trade, Richard was most proud of his time as an Officer with the Carroll County Humane Society. Richard retired in the mid 90’s.

Richard had a strong sense of family. He believed there was nothing more important. He would often look forward to family dinners and celebrations. Richard could quite frequently be found on the sidelines of one of his grandchildren’s many sporting events being their biggest fan!

Richard was an avid Elvis fan. He enjoyed Gunsmoke, American muscle cars, Keno, scratch offs, and the occasional trip to the casino with Helen. Richard enjoyed playing the guitar and singing for his close family.
