Richard was employed at Dexter Lawson Manufacturing in Cambridge for over 30 years before its closure came. He worked from being a machinist to going back to school for his CNC and then for a short time he became foreman. Richard also worked at Cello and at GFW Technologies in Cambridge before retiring. Richard and his late wife Sharon spent early years travelling  together. Richard and Sharon also enjoyed camping with their friends out at the trailer park. Richard loved spending time with his grandchildren and was so proud of them. He loved his Sunday morning breakfast and was a man that was on the go constantly, he would never stop. He could start a conversation with anyone and make them laugh. He was the biggest kid of the family.

Cremation has taken place and a private family gathering will be held. A celebration of Richard's life will be held in the upcoming weeks.

In lieu of flowers please make donations to the Heart and Stroke Foundation or the Kidney Foundation. This would be greatly appreciated by the family.
