Richard John Kramer
1950-Legend
“Every year passed 30, was a bonus!”
Rich’s earthly role of Husband, Father, PaPa, Grandpa, Uncle, Cousin, and Friend has come to an end. Rich has returned to his previous position and role as Son, Brother, Son-in-law, Uncle, and Old Friend.
Rich has chosen an outdoor LIFE retirement. Consisting of never-ending pastures and lakes. Where sun rises and sunsets are one, the fish always bite, the deer always play, the beer is ALWAYS cold and the BBQ pit is always smoking with plenty of seats for friends and family.
Rich was a story-teller, a care-taker, a business man and the BEST type of human, anyone could strive to be. If you needed a shirt, he had one to spare. If you needed a job done but had no luck or money to pay, he loved cookies and graciously accepted them for payment. He chose to lift everyone and anyone around him up. His wisdom and outlook on life and people will be shared for generations. His spirit, his essence and his greatness will be carried on through everyone who’s heart he touched. NEVER FORGOTTEN!
Rich was loved by so many… to name them all, would take a life time. He lived and loved, just as he left. A fighter, on his OWN terms, surrounded by admiration, awe and pure love.
Perfectly said! We all will love him and miss him forever! He is the Best Brother I could have ever had!!!! My love and prayers are with you, Pam, and the fantastic family!
Such a wonderful person. Will forever be missed. Thoughts and prayers with his beautiful family
Rich was amazing. He and Pam raised a beautiful family. Kind , funny , loving. Will miss his sweet smile and hugs. Thinking of you all. ❤️
Send like we were over at their house a lot when we were little, as they were close by. Always enjoyed running around their house over on Kerth Road. We just talked about the 3 cows they had there, how odd! He was always a pleasant person to talk to… we’ll miss him.
What was written about this incredible soul and brother in law was absolutely perfect to describe Rich. In all these years I never saw him frown. He was always smiling. He’s going to be missed! ❤️🙏🕊
What a great man he was, always keeping the light in the room and cracking jokes consistently. He will forever be looking over us in the kingdom of the Lord. Such a beautiful soul ❤️
I was looking at the picture of Rich again and this information popped up about Rich.
Beautiful words and SO true.
Growing up, I was closer to Kenny and Jerry.
I, too remember visiting on Kerth Rd. Aunt Virginia gave me permanents.
I remember get togethers in Fenton at Pam and Rich’s.
Being out of town, I didn’t get to see Rich often. I’m blessed we had some really good visits on the phone these past few years. Rich had a beautiful smile and twinkling eyes.
Rich loved people, especially the family he had with Pam.
Thank God for memories.
Love and prayers to Rich and his family .
Your cousin,
Barb
Rich was just a pure gentleman with a tremendous heart. His personality was contagious and his laugh joyful. A real honor to have known him and be a part of his inner circle. God Bless.
