Richard W. "Whitey" Koogler

Not sure how to start, but I was a scout and Whitey was our leader in the 60s in Horsham township which Willow Grove Navy Station was located. I couldn't tell you for how many years I searched to say hi to him again, but now finally figuring out his full name and spelling I sadly read this. So sorry I was so late. He was a great person and to put up with all us guys going camping he sure was blessed. If there is any family who could contact me I would apricate it, I do have a question.

I have many memories of Whitey. From my call into the tribe to my years on Sawmill staff. He was an inspiration to me. We shall all surely miss our anchor.

I don°t know how many people°s lives were affected by Whitey. I never could if I lived to be a thousand years old. I know that he had a profound effect on my life and if I am in any way a good man, a good son, a good Scout, a good Trailblazer, a good Tribesman, a good Catholic or a good Marine, it is due in large part to this incredibly outstanding friend that we all love and will miss for the rest of our lives.
Whitey, you won°t be forgotten, you are engraved on our hearts, souls,...

Whitey Koogler was one of the holiest and most Christ-like men I have ever had the privilege of knowing. He was a true disciple of Christ in both his service to others and devotion to the Church. More than anyone else I have personally known, it seems that Whitey exemplifies the passage St. Paul's description, "I have been crucified with Christ; it is no longer I who live, but Christ who lives in me" (Gal. 2:20). I love you, Whitey, and will pray for you always, that you may be admited to...

Are beloved Whitey I was so proud when you help conduct my Son's First Class broad of review I was in hope that you would be there for his Eagle, but you will be there in heart and in spirit. Thank you for believing in me and giving me the chance to be the second Woman in the Tribe of the Mic-O-Say in Troop 30 I hold that honor deep in my heart. Gregory and I will miss so much.We will hear your drums beat forever. Love and Respect.

Whitey instilled in me the responsibility of my Mic-O-Say paint responsibility and that lesson carried over into many other areas of my life for which responsibility was an imperative. The Great Spirit has called you home, but your spirit will fill Lone Bear Council Ring for generations. It is well, carry on.

I have had the priviledge to have known whitey for 8+ years, but withing the past 3 years i have visited whitey often. We shared jokes, thoughts and insults. I have come to love him as many have. I have no biological grandpas, but i would like to consider whitey as my grandpa. I love you Chief Mad Drums. My prayers are with you.
