Richard James DeRuyscher N. Chili - Saturday, January 9, 2021 at age 85. Predeceased by parents, William and Agnes; brothers, Donald and Robert; great-nephew, Steven DeRuyscher. Survived by his wife of 64 years, Shirley; nephew, David (Karen) DeRuyscher; great-niece, Kristine (Matthew) Galligan; great-nephew, Kevin (Cassandra) DeRuyscher; great-great- nephews, Rhys and Liam Galligan; great-great-niece, Cora DeRuyscher; 3 nieces, Sheryl, Cathy and Karen.

Dick was a charter member of the Brockport Ambulance Corps and Brockport Exempts. He was a retiree of NYS in 1997 and a member of the Retired Public Employee Association. He loved woodworking and spent many hours in his basement making beautiful items. He also was a history buff, read a lot about WWII and had a great collection of historical items. Richard and Shirley had their home built at College Greene in 1995 and had just celebrated 25 years in their home. Dick enjoyed their home and taking care of their yard. They have many great neighbors. In the last few years, due to many health problems, he spent less time doing his yard work. He enjoyed travelling with his dear friends, David and Barb Kelly. A celebration of Dick's life will be announced at a later date. In lieu of flowers, memorials may be made to Honor Flight Rochester, Inc., PO Box 23581, Rochester, NY 14692.
