Obituary of Richard McGarry

McGarry

Richard McGarry, on December 29, 2020. Husband of the late Mary Ellen (nee Vliet), loving father of Richard (Denise) McGarry, Carolyn (John) Hopkins, and Kim (Jack) Kelly. Grandfather of John, Andrew, Matthew, Richard, Sarah, John, Lauren, Jason, and Molly, brother of Doris, Robert, the late Marie, Anna, James, William, Joseph, and Francis, dear friend of Anna Columbo.

Our Dad was a proud family man, who was married to the love of his life for 48 years.  Together, they dedicated themselves to raising their three children and were blessed by nine grandchildren.  For twenty five years the memories of  times spent in Sea Isle on the beach, crabbing on the bay with the grandkids and nights spent watching the sunset at the Yacht Club with family and friends are woven into the fabric of all of our lives. Our Dad was a dedicated family man, who loved his Wellen, his children and grandchildren fiercely and loved the life that he and our Mom built.  He will be missed dearly, but knowing that he is at rest with our beloved mother offers some measure of peace.

Family and friends are invited to his funeral mass Wed January 6, 10:30 AM at St Christopher's Church, 13301 Proctor Rd, Phila., Int Private
