Richard CARR Obituary

CARR, Richard J. Richard J. Carr, united with God on August 18th, 2020. Rick now spends his days with his recently deceased mother Mary Lou; his father, John; his sister, Cheryl, and his brothers, John and Dan. Rick would want to be remembered with a smile on his face, telling a joke to make other people laugh. Rick grew up in Bellefontaine and later moved to Huber Heights, OH. He enjoyed 40 years of relationships with clients as a barber and cherished his weekends with his family. He spent the last 14 years employed with an incredibly generous company Cardinal Health. He embraced his role as a father and always made time for his children as he was often the coach, mentor and head cheerleader for all of their life events. He was a wonderful grandfather and loved every minute giggling, laughing and hugging his grandkids. He spent 40 incredible years raising a family, traveling, and building memories with his wife and best friend, Shelly. Rick is survived by his wife, Shelly and his children, Adam (Tarah) and Sarah (Mark); grandchildren Noah, Jonah, Gracie girl (Norah), and his little buddy boy, (Grant); brothers, Dave, Greg and George, and his best friend Tim. A Walk Through Visitation will be held from 2-4 PM on Sunday, August 23, 2020, at Marker & Heller Funeral Homes, Huber Heights Chapel, 5844 Old Troy Pike. In lieu of flowers, memorial contributions may be made to Save A Warrior https://everloved.com/life-of/rick-carr/ in Rick's memory.

My father and I offer our condolences for Rick’s passing. We had so many wonderful conversations with Rick through the years we knew him, and it was obvious that he deeply loved and was very proud of his entire family. Rick was thoughtful, and also a real character. We will miss him.

When I think of Mr. Carr, I think husband, father, grandpa, friend, & funny...although I know he is much more. I will cherish our St. Peter & family vacation memories and see him with a big smile on his face. Recently, I am grateful for the friendship he & my father shared. Whether it was a friendly visit or a much needed haircut, Mr. Carr spoke of 3 things: His love for Shelly, how proud he was of Adam & Sarah, or how excited he was to be a Grandpa. He loved you all! He will be missed.

My heart felt sympathy to Rick's family. I have many wonderful memories of our children growing up together, life at St Peters, and Florida vacations. Rick was a man who never spoke badly about anyone. Just a kind word, smile and a joke. Prayers, blessings and love to Rick's family.

Rick always had a smile and a kind word for everyone even when I know he was exhausted working the night shift!

He loved his grand babies and family. He never failed to show me a picture or give me an update each time I saw him. I loved the giant smile that would spread across his face when he talked about them.

He will be missed greatly at Cardinal!
