Preceded in death by his father and mentor David Kerr.
Richie loved spending time with his family and watching his grandsons play. One of his favorite past times was fishing with a great deal of his enjoyment coming from just sitting outside enjoying nature. He was able to make it to see the ocean for the first time and couldn’t wait to get back there again. Richie also enjoyed going to church and growing in the spirit. Per his wishes he will be cremated and a remembrance of life ceremony will be held at Herman Woods on March 31, 2019 from 2-5 pm and if unable to make it the door to our home is always open for visitors.
