Richard grew up in Princeton, Iowa. He married Emmy Lou Dennis<br />

in 1953 and they had five children together. He served in the U.S. Air<br />

Force as a military police officer. While still in high school, he started<br />

his career with Alcoa in Davenport, Iowa. His career took him to many<br />

locations, including South Wales, China, and Russia. Richard enjoyed<br />

gourmet cooking, snow-skiing, and fly fishing. Richard was a master<br />

woodcrafter, pilot, turkey hunter, and gut-bucket musician.<br />

One of the great loves of his life was his 1962 Morgan Super Sport.<br />

Dennis and Karen were long-time members of Morgan<br />

Owners Group Northwest while they lived in Boise, Idaho.<br />

We would like to acknowledge Allison and all his friends from "The<br />

Log House" in Russellville, Kentucky. He also leaves behind many<br />

wonderful friends in Boise, Idaho, including those at the Idaho British<br />

Car Club and the Bogus Basin Ski Club.<br />

The family would like to express their gratitude to his sister-in-law,<br />

Sharon Nelson, and step daughter, Becky Withers, for all their love<br />

and friendship over the years.<br />

A private memorial service is being held at a later date. Titzer Family<br />

Funeral Homes, Newburgh, Ind. is assisting with arrangements.<br />
