McFARLAND

J. Richard McFarland, DDS (Dick) born September 14, 1938, went to be with his heavenly Father on Tuesday, October 6, 2015. A list of the many organizations he was a member, officer or president of would be impressive, but most important! He loved God with all his heart, mind and soul. He treated his wife, Sue (Susan Hayslip) with love and compassion, honoring her throughout their 56 years of marriage. Dick was a family man, so proud of his three children Jay McFarland, Jill Jenkins (Randall) and Megan Peters (Steven). His seven grandchildren Liam McFarland, Shea and Amy Jenkins and Logan, Weston, Dylan and Peyton Peters were his greatest treasures and he loved them dearly. James and Mary (Sparks) McFarland were loved and adored parents. As an older brother to Thomas H. (Judy) McFarland he led by example. A loyal friend and excellent dentist for 37 years, his passion was people. Whether it be golf, basketball, bridge or scrabble he was a competitive opponent. A world traveler, lover of good jokes and belly laughs. Dick will be missed and remembered by so many. Services will be held Saturday, October 24, 2015 at Crossroads Church, 3500 Madison Road, 45209. Family will receive guests at 9:30 a.m. and service will begin at 10 a.m. In lieu of flowers memorial contributions may be directed to Hospice of Cincinnati, P.O. Box 633597, 45263, or Crossroads Church. Gwen Mooney Funeral Home entrusted with arrangements www.springgrove.org.

Although I was sad to hear of Dick's passing, I was thankful to have recently talked with him via phone. I was a class-mate and team-mate with Dick from fist grade through high school. He had a great life and loving family who will certainly miss him.

Dear Sue, My heart aches for you and your family. I remember being with the two of you at Ohio State University in 1960-1961. Your cordial hospitality and wonderful meals reminded me of those early times in our lives as we struggled to reach our goals.Through the years I would fill prescriptions for Dick's patients and they all cast accolades upon him. He truly was admired and loved by all. My prayers are with you.

To the McFarland Family:

I was a patient of Dr. McFarland from 1981 until he retired. He was a master at his craft and I still have most of the work he did. I also, have had many compliments on his work by other Dentists since then. I am very sorry to hear of his passing.
