In loving memory of a devoted husband, father, brother and friend. Son of the late William Danielson and Shelia May Wahlgren. Former wife of 25 years Sabina Lucille Gross, father of Richard James (mother Cyndi Wanzer), Charles Everett (mother Lorriane Tucker), Francis Julian and Anthony Roger Gross, brothers to Gary A. Gross, Chuck Gross and the late Greg Gross and loving companion Jill Herrin.

Richard loved the sea, licensed as a Captain and worked for many years in the Maritime Industry on Tugboats in Alaska as a US Merchant Marine Seaman. Also an avid motorcycle enthusiast, he had many brothers in the Harley-Davidson world.

Music, also a life's love, his home was always filled with the sounds of guitars, blues and rock & roll.

Loved by many, he had several nicknames through various windows of his world, but it was his kindness and devotion to his family that he will always be remembered for. Richard, we all love you and you will live in all our hearts forever. "Speak to us in memories" and may God speed your final rest.
