Richard "RICH" Alan Brewer
Dameron, Maryland
Mar 2, 1953 – Apr 26, 2021

Richard Alan Brewer, 68, passed away on Monday April 26, 2021 in Dameron, Maryland.

He was born March 2, 1953 to George Robert and Julia Ann (Salb) Brewer in Washington, DC.

Rich graduated from Surrattsville High School in Clinton, MD in 1971. He then attended and graduated with a Bachelor of Arts degree from St. Mary's College in St. Mary's City, MD in 1979.

He played baseball for the American Legion- Post 255, St. Mary's baseball club and St. Mary's College in the early 70s. In the late 70s, he played for the two-time Young Men's Championship Raley's softball team. In their 1977 Championship season, Rich was deemed the MVP on a very talent-loaded team of excellent ball players.

He was an all round athlete, a history bluff, an amazing photographer, he always had a camera in his hand; your own personal ESPN sportscaster with every stat you wanted to know (a trait he passed on to his son).

He worked many jobs in his lifetime. To name a few - Calvert Cliffs Nuclear Power Plant, Goddard Space Flight Center, numerous printing companies (House of Printing, Chroma Graphics, The Printing Network, Linemark, RD&K) SMECO, Verizon and ended up at his dream job - St. Mary's College of Maryland as a "Driver/ Special Assistant to the President" in 2017.

Rich left an impression on everyone he met. He was the best father, brother, uncle, coach, coworker and friend anyone could ask for.

He woke his children every morning for school singing and happy. He would come home everyday from work and play with them. He coached his son baseball. He helped with their math and history. Even teaching them to make the famous Southern Maryland stuffed ham and grill you the best steak you have ever had.

His friends would describe him as: a "Hall of Fame" friend, an outstanding ball player, a class act, witty, a St. Mary's Legend, kindhearted, vibrant, a Pool Aficionado, loved by everyone, generous and a unique piece of work.

Such a amazing person. Such a kind, sweet man, with a wonderful heart. He was always happy and always had a smile that lit up the room.

He was truly a wonderful friend to all. Always taking time to talk, listen and help in anyway he could. He left a mark on the world and everyone in it he cared for. He was truly loved and made an impact on everyone throughout his life's journey. He was truly loved and will be missed.

Rich loved sports- Baseball, Hockey, Football, Basketball and Golf. He was always willing to share his talent, skills and knowledge in sports, photography and history.

He loved nature (especially water), sunrises, sunsets, lighthouses, music and every child he meet.

He looked forward to the yearly Brewer family trip to Nags Head, NC, any opportunity to take a picture of a lightning, play golf with his son, make stuffed ham with his kids, and spend time with his family and friends.

He is preceded in death by his parents, George Robert and Julia Ann Brewer and brother, John Edward Brewer.

He is survived by his children, Kaylyn Brewer of Churchton, MD and Dylan Brewer of Dunkirk, MD.

As well as his siblings- Robert (Adele) Brewer of Bryan's Road, MD, Barbara Brewer of Waldorf, MD, Jimmy (Elizabeth) Brewer of Springfield, VA and Pat (Shelly) Brewer of Hughesville, MD along with many nieces, nephews and great nieces and nephews.

There will be a celebration of life planned at a later date.
