Richard F. DiLorenzo

Richard liked watching body building competitions and also enjoyed cowboy movies, starring John “The Duke” Wayne. He lifted weights regularly and had a fond interest in dinosaurs. His affection for Jen and Becki’s Great Danes, Mikko and Knox, earned him the name “GrandPaw” and he visited them often. Richard indulged in writing, which he considered a lost art. He was an amazing writer. Formerly, he was in the security printing industry for 20+ years. He moved to this area with his family in 1992, from Philadelphia and retired in May 2011, from RecoverCare.
