Richard was preceded in death by his grandparents and his Mom, Marcia Ransom who passed away on May 27, 2007.
Richard worked in the maintenance department at Double-S Liquid Feed Services. He was a down to earth man who was known as a jokester, and he liked to spend time outside mowing the lawn.

He was an avid supporter of the Green Bay Packers and St. Louis Cardinals. For the short period of time our Richard spent with us, he touched many hearts and will be greatly missed by his family and friends.
