Richard Shaver Obituary

March 21, 1937-Jan. 16, 2017 Richard (Dick) was born in Taft, California to George and Ruth Shaver. He served in the Navy and was a Mason for many years. He retired From GTE after 35 years. He enjoyed coaching baseball, and watching his grandkids play sports. He was their diehard fan! I don't think he missed a single game of his kids or grandkids. Richard leaves behind his beloved wife, Juanita, of 57 years; his sister, Georgia Morgan of Bakersfield, CA; daughter, Martha Shaver Woods, her son, Jordan (Blythe) Woods, son, Dave Shaver, his daughter, Morgan Stokes, (Joe) his son, Zack Shaver, son, Richie Shaver, his daughter, Cherise Shaver and son, Bailey Shaver. Richard, Dick, dad, Tron, papa and pap-pap will be missed so much. A celebration of Richards life will be at Our Saviors Lutheran Church, 215 Mukilteo Blvd. Everett, WA, February 11, 2017, at 11:00 a.m. Remembrances can be made to Diabetes, or a Dementia organization.

I worked with Dick at GTE in COE Installation. Dick was ALWAYS kind, courteous, dressed neat as a pin and great to know. I know he loved to drive around taking day trips... I saw him drive by my place one day, way up here in Stanwood :) He was a pleasure to work with. He's been in my thoughts the past few months. Sorry to hear of his passing. I know all of you will dearly miss him. He was a great guy. Juanita, I know he really loved you :)
