Richard Torres went to be with his Lord and savior, Jesus Christ early in the morning October 19, 2017 with family at his side. Richard passed at Grays Harbor Community Hospital in Aberdeen, Washington. Richard was born January 5, 1932 to Thomas and Rose Torres in Monterey Park, California. He was the youngest of four children. Richard will be remembered as a hardworking, honest and caring man. His sense of humor and quick wit was appreciated by the many lives he touched. Even as he struggled to recover from abdominal aneurysm surgery, he had those around him with tears in their eyes, laughing. He was the epitome of what a father should be as he helped his children when needed, through the travails of life. His subtle wisdom will long be valued.
