Richard Bacon Obituary

Richard D Bacon (67) of Loveland died April 15, 2015 at Saint Rose Dominican Hospital in Henderson, NV. He was born December 14, 1947 in Loveland, CO to Howard and Erma Bacon. Dick graduated from Loveland High School in 1967. On May 23, 1980, he married Kathleen McCarty and together they had two children. Dick started his own business with his brother, Ken, in 1973. Over the years, the business has evolved to include building houses and commercial real estate around the Loveland area, to foundations and concrete work, and finally automobile restoration. Dick enjoyed working on and collecting his classic cars, collecting guns and target shooting, and socializing with friends and family. He is survived by his wife, Kathy Bacon of Loveland, daughter Kristine Bacon of Westminster, son Jeffrey Bacon of Loveland, and brother Ken Bacon and wife Mickie of Loveland, along with numerous nephews and great nieces and nephews. He is preceded in death by his parents Howard and Erma Bacon, grandparents John and Hannah Bacon, and grandparents Hiram and Edna Wickham. There will be a celebration of life that will be held at a later date.

Sorry to hear of your family's loss. Even today every time I see a restored car I still think of Dick's Chevy Woody that he restored. Beautiful work.
