We gather here today to bid farewell to Richard Gagne, a man who lived a long and somewhat eventful life in St. Petersburg, Florida. Born on August 8, 1934, Richard passed away on November 23, 2024, at the ripe old age of 90.

Richard was a man of many talents and accomplishments. He had 6 children, Susan George, Rich Gagne, Kathy Cross with spouse Doug Cross, Laurie Rudoph, Donna Gleason with spouse Ron Gleason, and Dan Gagne, as well as 10 grandchildren, whose names we will not mention.

Throughout his life, Richard worked at various places in Massachusetts and Florida, finally retiring in 2023. He also proudly served in the NAVY, where he dedicated his time and efforts to serving his country.

Despite his busy career and family life, Richard always found time for his hobbies. He enjoyed watching birds and other wildlife from his front porch, finding solace and joy in the simple things in life.

In the end, Richard succumbed to old age with pneumonia, a fitting end for a man who lived a full and meaningful life. Though he may be gone, his memory will live on in the hearts of his loved ones and those who knew him.
