Richard Deignan

Richard was a loving and caring man who took an interest in our family after we arrived in America in October of 1956. He help my father get a job at Heald Machine Shop and introduced him to someone who spoke Polish. In this way my father was able to communicate and secure a position. Richard generously donated to NEADS when I was in the process of raising money for my First Service Dog. She has since passed but I will always remember that he was the first to make a donation for her. Love you...

We are saddened to hear of Mr. Deignan's passing. He was the last of the "old timers" from the neighborhood still left. We have many fond memories of him during the summers of our youth. He often stopped by the park to say 'hi' and each summer offered his pool to neighborhood kids as long as we were accompanied by a parent. God Bless. The O'Leary's - Dan and Sue

You, dear Uncle Richard, have been intimately part of our lives as a second father. We know you will be watching, caring, and still loving us from above. We will always love you and remember you with a smile and a prayer.
God bless you.
Deacon Kevin & Michelle Deignan

RICHARD ILL MISS OUR JOUSTING MATCHES. God bless.

Dear Richard, I have been trying to think of something to write you. I will miss hearing "kiss my Irish" "it's not easy" "Don't get the cook mad" "close the door we are not heating Bremer St" Your Good Morning song, and chocolates at Christmas, just to name a few, there are many more. Most of all you opened your heart and home to me, thank you for that. You are a wonderful man, a people person, you always found someone to talk within a crowd. Rest in peace, I will always love and miss...
