Dick L. Kauffman, 77, of Willow Street, passed away on Sept. 10, 2010 at Hospice of Lancaster Co. surrounded by his loving family. His smile and humor will be greatly missed, but we celebrate his life now in heaven.
Born and raised in Willow Street, Dick was the son of Ralph Kauffman Sr. and Cleo (Cochran) Kauffman. He was married to Loretta (Rankin) Kauffman for 54 years.
Dick will be lovingly missed by: his wife Loretta, his 2 daughters, Sharon, wife of Donald Neff, Terry, wife of Curt Stumpf, and a son Rick, husband of Kimberly; 6 grandchildren and 7 great-grandchildren. He was preceded in death by his daughter Connie.
Dick served in the Army from 1953-55 and was a Veteran of the Korean War. He was employed by Holsum Bread for 19 years and later worked for Penn Manor School District, retiring in 1994. Never one to sit back and relax, Dick then began working for the Willow Street Car Wash and soon became their #1 employee.
He was also a lifetime member of Millersville VFW and Pequea Valley Sportsmen Assoc. Dick enjoyed hunting, fishing, working in his garden and yard, and going to the family’s bay cottage. He was an avid Phillies fan and enjoyed playing “Horsie-pepper” with his friends at the mountains. He could always be found at the Willow Street Diner drinking coffee with his buddies.
