Richard was born on July 3, 1951 in Duluth, MN and grew up in the small community of Floodwood, MN. He was the youngest of two siblings and received his college degree from Moorhead State University. Shortly after he graduated, he married Donna Carlson on September 3, 1977. His proudest moments in life were when his two boys, Grant and Garrett were born.
Richard had a lifelong career in the insurance industry and had many stories to share about his work adventures. His dedication to work never superseded his support for his family. Dick was always supportive of family events and being there for those who needed him most.
Joy came from spending time with friends and family. Holidays were his favorite, especially Thanksgiving and Christmas. He enjoyed watching and participating in sports with his two sons and playing cribbage with those close to him. He also enjoyed cooking, bowling, being a Stephen Minister, ushering at church, and watching the Twins and Vikings.
Richard is proceeded in death by his father, Oliver, and mother, Ruby Handel. He is survived by his wife, Donna, his two boys Grant and Garrett (Lasandra), granddaughter Harper, sister Barbara, and nephew Matthew (Diane).
