Richard Pacsay Obituary
Richard was born in Boston on November 4, 1953, a son to the late Joseph and Eunice (Grady) Pacsay. He grew up and attended schools in Littleton and Somerville, Massachusetts. Upon graduating, Richard enlisted in the United States Navy and served as a Seabee, a position he was most proud of and held until his retirement in 2007. In his free time he could be found socializing with other retired Veterans at the VFW in both Littleton and Westford or cruising area yard sales for hidden treasures and bargains. Richard was a collector of many things. He enjoyed antique auto shows and watching baseball, football and Nascar. He was a friend to all and his "Can Do" attitude and mischievous smirk will be greatly missed. He most enjoyed his time with family.
In addition to his wife Doreen, Richard is survived by his children, Tatum Worcester and her husband, Matt, of Dublin, Stephen Pacsay and his wife, Kathy, of Wolfeboro, Heather Niemela and her fiancé, Ryan Wragg, of Peterborough, Melinda Johnson of Woodstock, Connecticut and Kyle Conroy of Yakima, Washington; his grandchildren who brought him much joy: Alison, Elias, Aubrey, Hannah, Jocelyn, Adaya, Caleb, Michael and Gracie; and his siblings Jay Pacsay of Westford, Massachusetts, Corinne Wall of Medford, Massachusetts, Meg Fraser-Romilly of Littleton, Massachusetts, Michael Fraser of Sagamore, Massachusetts, and Eileen Holman of New Ipswich; many cousins, nieces and nephews. He was predeceased by Lee (Fraser) Brodley who acted as his second mother.
