Richard Leon McFadden passed peacefully at home in College Place, Washington. Richard was born August 31, 1931 in the South Park area of Seattle Washington to Margaret and Chester McFadden.
Richard graduated from Cleveland High School in 1949 and soon after enlisted in the Navy where he did see the world including being aboard the USS Gurke at the invasion of Inchon during the Korean War. He was a U.S. Postal Service letter carrier for over 34 years retiring in 1986. Richard created beautiful and productive gardens at home and after retirement became a Master Gardener attending the Washington State extension service program. He never tired of fishing for trout and salmon and was happiest in a boat on the water. His family treasured times with him and when he spoke he had their full attention. He set a fine example for his children and grandchildren as he had a unique sense of humor and was slow to anger. Richard’s friendships were lifelong and he was always there to lend a helping hand.
Richard was predeceased by his Mother and Father, Sisters, Patricia and Marion, Brothers, Chester and Allan, Son David, Stepdaughter, Janis and Step Grandson, Chad.
Surviving are his Wife of 48 years, Bobbie McFadden, Sons Patrick (Leslie) and Brian McFadden, Stepdaughter, Jeri Weber (Steve), 12 Grandchildren and 21 Great Grandchildren.
