Richard worked as a roofer for many years and would proudly point out the work he had done, even long after his retirement. He loved going fishing whenever he could. Often, he could be found sitting on his front porch waving to people as they drove by, and his Sundays would be spent passing out candy to the members at New Birth Church. Richard loved his family and friends and was dearly loved in return. He will be sorely missed by so many. Calling hours will be held on Saturday March 15, 2025, from 1:00pm until 3:00pm with a service following at New Birth Church 4025 Church St, Thorndike, MA 01079. A private graveside service will be held at a later date. In lieu of flowers donations can be made to New Birth Church. "Jesus said to her, 'I am the resurrection and the life. Those who believe in me, even though they die, will live, and everyone who lives and believes in me will never die.' " -John 11:25-26 .  Cebula Funeral Home of Ware is assisting his family with the final arrangements.  For more information and an online guest book, please visit:  www.cebulafuneralhome.com .
