Proud grandfather of Amanda Tinney, Kelli Tinney, Jenna Honold, Caleb Garner, Christine Honold and Eden Buuck. He is also survived and fondly remembered by his great grandchildren, along with many nieces, nephews, cousins and especially his best friend Noah McDonald. Richard was born in Bogalusa, LA and was a longtime resident of St. Bernard Parish where he enjoyed a long career as a Buyer for Universal Furniture Store. He found pleasure in the details of everyday life and caring deeply for others. His passion for fishing was surpassed only by his love of spending time with his friends and family. Richard will always be remembered for his loyalty and dedication to his family, his loving spirit, laughter, and spoiling the grandchildren. He was a wonderful example of what it means to care for others and will be deeply missed by us all. Richard was laid to eternal rest with military honors in the Southeast Louisiana Veterans Cemetery.
