Richard is survived by his loving wife, Marie, of 58 ½ years and his five children, Albert (Marlene), Lorinda (Kevin), Aleta (Russ), Raymond (LeAnna), Donna (Jeff) and 6 grandchildren, Matt, Justin, Brandon, Tyler, Bailey, Katisha; brothers, Werner, Chuck (Arlene), Bob (Margaret); sisters, Bernadetta, Rose, Petronilla (Jim), Louise (Burnie) as well as many nieces, nephews and friends. A special thank you to the caring staff of Moog and Friends Hospice House and to Dr. Caskey. The family wishes to thank everyone for their kindness and support.
