He graduated from St. Joseph School in Lucinda, PA and in 1952 joined the Army during the Korean War. After completing leadership training, he was assigned to guard the German border. He was a proud veteran and was honorably discharged in 1954 at which time he returned home to Lucinda where he worked at Schmader Lumber. He married the late Virginia "Ginny" E. Zacherl in 1957 and they resided in Lucinda, PA and raised their 4 daughters there. After they were married, Dick began his career in the mobile home industry. He ended his career when he retired from Astro Manufacturing after many years as their Production Manager. After his retirement, he served on the North Clarion School Board for several years. He was also a member of St. Joseph Catholic Church, the American Legion, the Knights of Columbus and the VFW. Dick and Ginny moved to Charlotte, NC in 2015 to be near their family. Dick was a friend to many and was known as kind, giving, and generous. He loved his family, community and his church where he was a faithful volunteer and usher. He loved nature and was an avid hunter and founding member of the Antler Club in Lucinda, PA. He always had a story to share of his hunting and working days and enjoyed "solving the problems of the world" with the guys at Kelly's Breakfast Club.
