Richard Kreuscher Obituary
It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of our beloved dad, Richard (Dick) Kreuscher on February 22, 2025. He passed away peacefully at home surrounded by his family at the age of 89. Dick was born in Brooklyn, NY on February 14, 1936, as he often said, a comic Valentine, to Catherine (Rausch) and Richard Kreuscher, Sr. Dick proudly served his country in the U.S. Navy and Air Force.

Dick was an adored husband, father, grandfather, great-grandfather and friend. He had an infectious smile and giggle, and was known for his sense of humor and what we will call his daring escapades.

Dick, and his late wife, Muriel, ran Dick's Autocare in Mansfield for many years. His sense of humor and warm welcoming nature made every customer feel like part of the family.

He was predeceased by his loving wife, Muriel, and his sister, Elaine. He is survived by his brother, Charles Kreuscher, and his wife, Debra, and the loves of his life: his children, Deborah Colbath and her husband Michael, Melissa Little and her husband Ernie; his grandchildren, Rebecca Rivard-Darby, Sarah Hann, Ashley Little, Krista Micklo, and Caitlin Dexter; seven great-grandchildren; and Muriel’s children, Jeff and Joanne Todd, and Laurie Todd; and granddaughter, Izzie Zimmerman.

Donations in Dick’s memory can be made to American Friends of Kenya, 55 Hilltop Farms Lane

East Hartford, CT 06118.

Services will be private at the convenience of the family.
