After graduating from Baraboo High School in 1957, Richard went on to serve his country for over half of his life. He served in the United States Air Force from 1957-1961; the United States Department of the Air Force from 1965-1987 and the United States Department of the Army from 1987-2006.

Richard enjoyed the outdoors where he would take his sons hunting and fishing and take family camping trips in North Dakota and throughout Europe. He was a member of multiple bowling leagues, enjoyed gardening and tending to flowers and drinking beer. He also loved watching football and for many years he ran the family football pool.
