RIchard G. Warth's Obituary
Dear friends and family, it is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of Richard G. Warth on February 17, 2025, due to complications from Parkinson's Disease. He was preceded in death by his parents, Richard George Warth Sr. and Pearl Palermo Warth.
Richard is survived by his beloved wife, Dolores Judy Warth, and their two children, Brett Harper and Eric Warth. He was also the cherished grandfather of Noah, Emma, Joseph, Sofia, Joshua, Nathan, Samuel, and Luca Trapolino. He leaves behind his brother, Guy Michael Warth, and his wife Cecilia; his sister-in-law, Patricia Haun; and his brother-in-law, Michael Haun, along with many nieces and nephews. Richard also held a special place in his heart for his cousin, Frank Alexander, whom he considered a brother.
An avid runner and Harley Davidson enthusiast, Richard will be dearly missed by all who knew him. He is now reunited in Heaven with his parents, loved ones, and close friends of over 50 years, Freddy Catalido, Bob Taylor, and Henry Luna. Richard also maintained lifelong friendships with his childhood companions, Pete Dibello, Raymond Keith, and Jimmy King.
