Richard Everett Eichhorn

At 94 years old, Richard (Dick) Eichhorn lived a full and wonderful life, passing away peacefully of natural causes on October 11, 2024. Dick was a successful leader in the company he co-founded, leading the domestic and international sales and marketing functions. Retiring in 1981 he remained in the business world by investing, advising and serving as a board member of many start-up and early stage companies. Dick was born in Owatonna, MN and after graduating from Macalester College, he joined the Navy. After his discharge from the Navy, he married his college sweetheart Mardene Asbury. Dick is survived by Mardene, their three children (Mary, Bill and Annie) Bobby, Annie's husband, and six grandchildren (Gina, David, Ryanne, Mardene, Garrett and Katrina). We'd would like to thank the people at Brighton Hospice and NorBella Senior Living for supporting Dick and his family through his final days. The family held a private memorial service in Champlin, Dick will be forever missed and never forgotten.
