Richard found value in items many people considered junk — especially old cars. At one time, he had hundreds of antique vehicles as well as a plethora of other items. He loved to tinker with his collection and often created something new out of something old. He enjoyed talking about cars and telling stories about finding cars in a ditch or grove of trees.
He also loved spending time with his family, watching his grandchildren's activities, watching sports and making plans to restore just one more car.
