Richard was born in Columbus, OH on July 3, 1930 to Frank and Ruth Dolan. He graduated from Vandalia-Butler HS in 1949. Richard is survived by his present wife, Carol Dolan, and his former wife, Regina (Lampman) Dolan; four children, Michael (Amy), Teresa, Patrick (Diane), and Kelle Dolan; seven grandchildren, Chad, Anthony (fiancé Kayla), Tyler, Alex (Julie), Eric, Zack, and Rachel. Richard was preceded in death by his parents; brother, Robert Dolan; and son-in-law, Curtis Hunt. He served honorably in the US Army (Korean War) and retired from El-Bee Office Outfitters. Richard and Carol were happily together for 44 years and married for 28 years. They enjoyed collecting antiques and working on their home. He was a remarkable husband and father. He never knew a stranger and always had a joke or something to say – a definite Irishman. He will be greatly missed by all who knew him! Visitation will be 11:30am until 1:30pm on Friday, November 9, 2018 at Webb Noonan Kidd Funeral Home, Ross Avenue at South “D” Street, Hamilton. Funeral Service will be held at 1:30pm on Friday at the funeral home with Pastor Jacob Flannery officiating. Entombment will follow in Greenwood Cemetery Mausoleum.
“I don’t know what we’ll do without him.
Half of my soul goes with him.” - Carol
