Richard was born in Tontitown, Arkansas, and passed suddenly of natural causes in Loreto, Mexico. After many years of employment, he retired from P.G. & E. in 1985. Richard loved traveling to Baja each year with his wife Evelyn, and also enjoyed hunting with friends and family. He will be remembered as an honest, gentle man, who was a hard worker with a wonderful sense of humor, a generous heart, and a great love for his family and friends.
Richard is survived by his loving wife of 62 years, Evelyn, his sisters: Florence Rosso, Virginia Tonus, and Sister Mary Eugenia, children and their spouses: Larry Pellin, Michael Pellin and Rhonda, Beverly Pellin and Israel, Annette Ross and Rusty, many nieces and nephews, including Ron, Don, Gregg, Dennis, Denise and Kenny Garner, Gail Miller and Cindy Calasopa, 23 grand-children and 16 great-grandchildren.
There will be a gathering of family and friends February 2nd, 2007, at 2:00 P. M. at Immaculate Conception Church Hall in Tres Pinos to share in the celebration of Richard’s life.
If desired, donations may be made to the charity of your choice in Richard’s memory.
