Richard T. Reske, 82, of Farmington walked into the physical presence of his Lord and Savior Jesus Christ on Sunday March 3rd. A life long Michigander, Richard spent 50 plus years cheering on the Lions. He was also a fan of his Red Wings and Tigers. He also was glad to see his Wolverines win the national title before his health began to take a down turn. Prior to beginning his multiple career pathways including Hudson's and later on at Glendale Auto, Richard proudly served his country in the Air Force. Richard is survived by his twin brother Robert (Bob) and family, daughter Suzanne (son-in-law Samuel), grandchildren Emerson, Genevieve, and Slayton. Richard follows his wife Karen and son Kevin in their heavenly life. He will be missed by those who knew and loved him.
