Richard Lee Bacon

Mr. Bacon was a great Electronics Technology instructor at Santa Rosa Junior College (SRJC) and was genuinely interested in all of his students becoming fluent in all aspects of Electronics. Frequently he would work during the summer at the various Sonoma County Hewlett-Packard (HP) sites to keep up on current technology and to keep his Electronics skills sharp. I bumped into him numerous times at HP over the years. My condolences to his family, he will be greatly missed.

Mr. Bacon was one of the two top instructors at S.R.J.C. during the time I studied electronics. He was so encouraging to the students. I also had the privilege of knowing his wife, Dianne, when she cared for my mother as a hospice nurse. There is a special place in heaven for both of them.

Mr. Bacon was one of my three all-time favorite teachers. I studied electronics at SRJC, his classes were excellent and I used what I learned from him in my career in electronics. He was also a wonderful human being, much beloved by my classmates. My condolences to his family.

Mr. Bacon was my teacher at the Healdsburg high School the first year he started teaching there. He was just a wonderful and kind man. I took a class from him at the junior college also. I have thought about him many times throughout all these years. My deepest condolences to you and your family.

Our thoughts are with the family and friends at this time.
