Richard Ray Saucedo, passed away Saturday morning June 1,2024 in Denver, Colorado doing work he loved to do, Setting up for a concert. We all have special memories of him when he was growing up and also as an adult. We will always keep those memories close to our hearts.
He learned to enjoy the farm life at an early age. As kids, We lived south of Brush, Colorado in a country farm house where my brother helped and learned from Art Mormon, a farmer, he learned how to be a hard worker and care for animals. He loved it! For a short time, my mom became ill and my brother went to live with Myla ( his second mom he loved) and Terry Beckett in Missouri. He helped out in the farm, raised and show pigs in 4H. He received a Grand Champ Award in Adams County. He continued his schooling at Ysleta High School in El Paso, Texas. He was in FHA and had a few show pigs. he had a pig by the name of Red Baron, He loved that pig and received an award for him.
He made many friends along the way. Lenny Beckman from Scottsdale Arizona who he worked for many years which flourished into an amazing friendship. He worked for Prestige window tinting where he met the owners, Shawn and Buffy Elliott who were also really good friends.
Richard enjoyed doing a lot of things such as, hiking, 4 wheeling, motorcycle riding, and being with family and friends. He loved all types of music. He also enjoyed tinting windows. His first tinting job was in 1988 on my Forenza Oldsmobile. It took three tries and third time was a charm. At age 16 who knew that he would make it his career, which he loved. Tinting paid for his wedding with Bridget. He worked hard to get his own Tinting business called All Above Window Tinting.
I never thought I would be doing this brother. We were so blessed to have you in our lives. From the day you were born till the day our lord called you home. You touched so many lives along the way with your loving heart, unselfish nature, your big smile, your hard work ethic, and motivations. You were always there when someone needed something.
