Richard was a lifelong resident of Wilmington, DE, born to the late Elizabeth M. (Hoffman) Seery and Richard F. "Dick" Seery.

He worked hard all of his life retiring after 30 years as a truck driver for Shields Lumber Co. Although retired, Richard loved to keep busy. He enjoyed working on various projects around the house. One of his favorite pastimes was restoring old cars while puttering around in his garage listening to country western music. Most of all he enjoyed spending quality time with his loved ones.

He will be sadly missed by many.
