Richard ("Dick") lived in Milton, Quincy, Rochester NH, Hingham, Falmouth, and Duxbury. He graduated from Milton High School and Northeastern University.  He was later inducted into the Milton High School Athletic Hall of Fame, as he excelled in football, basketball, and baseball in both high school and college.  He was an entrepreneur and manufacturing manager, starting his own packaging companies, including Patriot Packaging and Cushionrite Packaging.

Dick married the love of his life, Nancy Joan Kuja of Quincy, and they spent 65 years together enjoying their many friends and family. He enjoyed golf and the beach, reading a good book, attending mass every week, traveling to vacation destinations, and cheering on his favorite sports teams (both professional and his children and grandchildren's teams).  Grandpa, as his family called him, was a role model for integrity, strength, and love.  He lived every day emulating family values and kindness to all, and he will live in our hearts forever.
