Richard Salas Obituary

Richard Christopher Salas, a cherished father, passed away on May 9, 2024 at the age of 77. He was deeply loved and will be greatly missed by his four children, Danielia, David, Robin and Stephen, as well as his four grandchildren Edward, Ike, Larson and Louis. The love his family had for him was great and he will be remembered by all who knew him. Toodle-oo, Dad-you made your one spin on the record one hell of a hit. A private memorial service will be held by the family to honor his memory.
