Richard Marin Obituary
Richard was born in Corcoran, California on May 11, 1955 to James and Ramona Marin. He attended elementary school in Corcoran and attended Hanford High School and Lemoore High School and graduated from Hanford Adult School. Richard married Debra Louella Miller in Armona, on May 21, 1976. He was a member of the Pentecostal Church of God of Laton. Richard enjoyed woodworking and made birdhouses for the entire family. He also enjoyed gardening, mechanic work, putting models together, BBQ's, camping, road trips, especially going to the coast. He taught his sons to fish, even though he didn't really enjoy it himself. Richard had a great sense of humor and you often wondered by the look on his face what he was going to do next. He was a big hearted man, giving to those in need and never held a grudge. Richard will be greatly missed by his family and those who knew and loved him.

To the family of Richard Marin, we are so sorry to hear of your loss. My mother, Flossie Brown lived next door to your family for many years, and Richard was so good to her. My husband Ken, loved to talk to him while we were there at Moms house. When we moved Mom in with us, Ken missed talking with Richard and stopped by a few times to say hello to him. Richard was a good person, and he touched our hearts with the concern he showed my mother. Thank you Richard, from Ken and Jeanette Burrow
