**Obituary for Richard R. Valenzi**
It is with deep sadness that we announce the passing of Richard R. Valenzi, a cherished husband, veteran, and friend, who left this world on Saturday, August 23rd, 2025, at the age of 78.
Born on Monday, June 16th, 1947, in Burbank, California, Richard was a man of character and diligence who touched the lives of many through his kindness and dedication to both his family and profession. A proud resident of West Palm Beach, FL, Richard led a life full of accomplishments and service.
Richard pursued higher education with vigor, obtaining a Master's Degree, which contributed to his successful career as a Sales Manager. Known for his keen business acumen and ability to connect with others, Richard's professional influence benefited colleagues and clients alike, earning him respect and admiration in the industry.
Beyond his professional endeavors, Richard served his country with honor as a member of the Air Force. His commitment to service and love for his country were evident to all who knew him, and his legacy as a veteran remains a source of great pride.
Richard is survived by his loving wife, Toni Valenzi, two sons, and other relatives and friends who stood by his side and shared in his life's journey with unwavering support and affection. Together, they built a life filled with love, laughter, and treasured memories.
In our hearts and memories, Richard's spirit will forever remain. His journey has touched so many, and his impact will not be forgotten. As we say goodbye, we take comfort in the knowledge that his life was filled with purpose, love, and honor.
May he rest in peace.
