Richard Marraccini Obituary
Richard had a successful career as a Regional Manager for Reynolds & Reynolds for many years. He dedicated himself to his work, showcasing his exceptional leadership skills and dedication to his team. Richard retired in 2014, embarking on a well-deserved retirement filled with joy and relaxation.
Outside of his professional life, Richard had a passion for various hobbies. He found solace in the art of needlepoint, creating intricate and beautiful pieces. Building car and ship models was another one of his favorite pastimes, showcasing his attention to detail and craftsmanship. Richard also had a talent for painting, using brushes and colors to bring his imagination to life.
Richard leaves behind a loving family who will cherish his memory. He is survived by his devoted wife, Joanne Marraccini, his son Marc Marraccini, and his daughter-in-law Lylla Marraccini. Richard was a doting grandfather to Vincenzo Marraccini and Gianna Marraccini. He was also a beloved brother to Linda Dums.
Richard is preceded in death by his parents, Angela Marraccini and Anthony Marraccini. Their memories will forever be cherished by those who knew and loved Richard.
In this time of mourning, let us remember Richard for his dedication to his career, his creative spirit, and the love he shared with his family. He will be deeply missed by all who had the privilege of knowing him.

I am so sadden by the news of Rich. I just left a voice mail for him on Monday to get together for lunch. We were trying to get together 3-4 times a year, I will miss these visits.
I have many memories that go back 40 some years at Reynolds & Larry Roesch VW. We always kept in touch.
Such a loss, hard to put in words.
Take care

My first memory of Rich was of me shoveling the driveway and he asked me if I needed help. That´s when you guys just moved in so I didn´t even really know him but so happy I got to know him. Don and the kids send you hugs Joanne! Rich and was always such a sweet, kind-hearted man!

Joanne and Marc,
My deepest condolences to all of you during this time. I will always remember all of you during my time at Guerin and especially those very special moments at Holy Cross with the band and football games and homecoming and everything we did together. We had so much fun and so many laughs in and out of school. It was like being with family. I will keep all of you in my thoughts and prayers. He was a wonderful man and always made me feel so special.
Much Love,
Lyn
