Richard Lawrence Sargent passed away peacefully at his home in Hollister, CA April 21, 2017 after a long battle with Alzheimer’s. He was born August 2, 1933 in Haverhill, Massachusetts.

After two years in the Army (1953-1955) Richard went to work for the Ma Bell/AT&T companies beginning in Massachusetts and later moving to San Francisco where he spent 30+ years working in a multitude of management jobs. Richard loved sports; playing football, basketball and baseball in high school and later took up golf which was his true pastime. Twice he celebrated a hole in one during his golfing career! It was always his desire to live on a golf course and almost 20 years ago, he and Johanna (also an avid golfer) came to reside at Ridgemark in Hollister where they have created wonderful memories with many friends.
