Richard is survived by his wife, Betty Turner; daughters, Teresa and Amanda (Janie); stepchildren, RuthAnn Mann and Michael Furrow; grandson, Ben Shepherd and his wife Tiffani; great-grandson, Remington; and several nieces and nephews. He served his country as an Army medical technician during the Korean Conflict, retired from the Radford Army Ammunition Plant after 20 years, and was a loving and devoted husband, father, grandfather and great-grandfather. Having never met a stranger, Richard leaves behind too many friends to count who, along with his family, will sorely miss him.
