Richard Foster, Sr. Obituary
Richard was the coach of several sporting teams over the years including the Chariho Jr. High School Basketball team, Chariho Track & Field Teams, and the Washington County Raiders Football teams. Many students have been influenced by his firm but fair method of coaching and driving kids to perform at their personal best.
He worked for years in engineering with companies like General Dynamics Electric Boat, Cumberland Company, and Vibco Industries.
A Memorial Gathering will be held on Tuesday, November 26, 2019, from 2pm-6pm at the Downey Weaver Post at 22 Whipple Drive in Charlestown, RI. All other services and military honors will be private. In lieu of flowers please make a donation to the Wounded Warrior Project.
