A lifetime resident of Airville, Richard was born on November 3, 1922 and was a U.S. Army veteran of WWII serving in European and African Theaters. For his dedication to his country, Richard had been awarded the Bronze Star. Following his service, he owned and operated a feed mill in Airville and worked at the Aberdeen Proving Grounds, retiring from demolition. Richard's bond with his son Todd was the most meaningful relationship of his life. They were always together; hunting turkey, pheasants and squirrel or enjoying the outdoors with a fishing pole in-hand. Hiking and returning hours later with bundles of ginseng was Richard's perfect day. He loved his family dearly. Richard was a member of the Pine Grove Presbyterian Church.
