In honor of Richard

Richard Anthony Kane, 87, of Tulalip, Washington passed away peacefully in Marysville, WA on Wednesday, June 21, 2023. He was born May 22, 1936, in Port Ludlow, WA to Chester and Violet Kane.

Richard married Leann Lind on May 2, 1963, in Everett. He graduated from Everett High School in 1955 and thereafter enlisted in the U.S. Army, where he proudly served his country. He also owned several gas stations with his brother Phil. He later worked as a maintenance department manager at Everett Pad & Paper, where he retired.

Richard was a kind, gentle soul who enjoyed cars, tractors, and gardening. He loved all things Chevy and could often be found working on his 1969 truck. He also loved spending time with his family and would make his famous sourdough pancakes every Sunday for breakfast.

He is survived by his wife Leann; his children Angela Fink, Mark Kane (Joanne), Karen Gillam (Bill), Christine Brewder (Brian), Patrick O'Toole (Tamara), and Jeannie Briones (Larry); many grandchildren and great-grandchildren; and siblings Patricia, Phil, Eileen, and Jim.
