Richard Fargo
June 26, 1938 — December 7, 2009
Richard A. Fargo, 71, of Burbank went home to be with the Lord Monday, December 7, 2009 at Wooster Community Hospital.
Dad has really missed our Mom and once Jesus showed him a glimpse of heaven he chose to go back to his real home there.
Thank you Dad/Grandpa for teaching us these biblical principles by example- overcome evil with good, forgive if you also want to be forgiven, work hard at living in peace with others, love one another and give all the glory to God.
Dad frequently recited 2 Corinthians 5:7 – “To be absent from the body, is to be present with the Lord”.
We sure are going to miss him.
But, as believers, we know our separation from both Dad and Mom is only temporary.
We are thankful to God for blessing us with such wonderful parents and sharing them with us for as long as he did.

We appreciate all the hard work he did for our family and countless others. Richard will be deeply missed by his children Richard M. (Denise) Fargo of Rittman, Pamela S. (Nolan S.)
