Richard was a gentle servant of God; serving his family and community with love and respect. Active in his ministries through the Church, he lived his faith participating in RCIA, Marriage Preparation, St Vincent de Paul, Alpha and Eucharistic Ministry. Richard was proud of his life career as a grocery store manager with Steinberg Company, Miracle Food Mart, A&P, Herbies, and Rexall. He enjoyed baseball, golf and playing horseshoes at Wildwood by the Lake, Morpeth. Another favourite pass time was spending hours washing and polishing his vehicles which gave him great joy.
