Obituary for
Richard Vendetti
Richard Joseph Vendetti
June 6, 1943 – October 19, 2018
Life should not be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well-preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming “Wow! What a ride!” – Hunter S. Thompson
Born to Anne Pednault (1917-2011) and Leo Vendetti (1915-1959) in Noëlville, Ontario and survived by his siblings Patricia (Joseph predeceased), Robert (Diane), Dorothy (Joe), Bill (Sandra), and Ron, and many nieces and nephews.
Richard leaves behind Arlene (née Beaudry), his bride of 50 years, and their children and grandchildren: Stephanie and Andrew, with Chelsea, Evan, and Hailey; Patrick and Vanessa, with Lauryn, Payton, Madisyn, Micho, and Alex; and Corrie and Korey with Holly.
An avid talker and jokester, Richard will be sorely missed by family and friends. Donations to the Salvation Army are appreciated.
