Dana E. Riche

Dana Eugene Riche, 62, born in Downey, California, was welcomed home by his Lord and Savior on Saturday, January 20, 2018.    Dana was a loving husband, father, and brother. Until illness prevented it, he enjoyed camping, NASCAR, Speedway, photography, and woodworking.  He loved spending time with his wife, son and those he loved.   He will be missed tremendously by all who knew him. Dana is survived by his wife, Ticia Riche; son, Scott Riche; brother, Dan Riche; sister, Debbie Riche; and many in-laws, out-laws, family members and many dear, dear friends. Dana Eugene Riche was born July 30, 1955, to Donald and Darlene Riche. He was raised in Whittier, CA, and graduated from Monte Vista High School in 1973. He worked in the aircraft industry for over 35 years. He fought valiantly and courageously. He didn't complain.  But in the end, the far reaching effects that chemo and mantle radiation had on his body were devastating....we came to understand just how much, only a few years ago. He is home safe and sound. His hair is red again, and he's loving on eight great nieces and nephews. His memorial service will be held at McAulay & Wallace on Sunday, January 28, 2018 at 3:00 pm, 902 North Harbor Blvd, Fullerton, CA 92832  In lieu of flowers, donations may be made in Dana's name to The City of Hope for research to cure Hodgkin's disease.
