It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of Richard Woolsey on March 1st in Poteau Oklahoma. Richard lived a full life to the age of 80.
Richard was born in California to James and Willie Woolsey on August 29th, 1943. He was a loving son, brother, father, and husband.
Richard is survived by his wife Ruth; daughters Amy and Jill; brothers Bill and John; sisters Jimmie Lou and Christine; grandchildren Chloe, Mason, Ruben, Hanna, and Owen.
Richard was an avid fisherman with a great love of the outdoors. Some of his favorite times were spent on the water fishing with his friends and family. He especially loved spending time with his grandchildren on the water and introducing them to fishing, crabbing, and water safety. He will lovingly be remembered as “Fishing Grandpa.”
The family of Richard wishes to extend our sincere thanks to The Hearts of Hospice in Poteau for their support and care during these difficult times. A special mention to Gus Calvo who provided so much comfort and peace for Richard and his family. His guidance and spiritual support have touched all our lives and will always be cherished.
