Richard Daily Obituary
A dutiful Methodist minister who shared his faith with countless congregations, a Navy veteran, a world-class athlete, a lifelong track coach and mentor, a devoted missionary who worked tirelessly to help Haitians, and a Mr. Fix-It who always came up with a solution. He loved children and animals, especially his Welsh corgi, Duke, and the many ponies bred by his family. More than anything, he adored Indigo, his only grandchild.
He was the warmest, kindest person, who greeted everyone with a smile and a silly joke and always remembered every detail about anyone he ever met. He was incredibly generous, extremely bright, and just an absolute gem of a human.
For the full obituary, please search "Richard Allen Daily" on Legacy.com.
He is survived by his wife, Alicia Daily, his daughters Emily Daily Walker (Josh) and Allison Daily, as well as his siblings, Patricia Duboise (Danny), Peggy Toussant (Jeff), John Daily (Angela), Steve Daily (Susan), and Pamela Hoepner (Jim), and also his granddaughter, Indigo Walker.
In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to The Haiti Mission Foundation, the Middlesex County Animal Shelter (Saluda, VA), or Lower United Methodist Church (Hartfield, VA). A memorial service will be held on December 19 at noon at Lower United Methodist Church in Hartfield, VA.
