Mr. Richard Eugene Renard, age 56, of New Concord, KY, formerly of Mayfield, passed away on Saturday, January 30, 2021 at Murray-Calloway County Hospital in Murray, KY.
He was a retired welder of Fleetwood Homes and a disabled U.S. Marine Corps veteran.
Ricky was a rich man with the love of family and friends. He loved to travel and enjoyed life. Ricky was a Marine, 3rd Division. “Once a Marine, Always a Marine.” Long after the uniform has been laid aside, the last order has been given, the final salute returned, the last handshake shared and the occasional tear brushed away by a determined hand. Long after that, it still runs in your veins. Lives on in your mind. Dominates your will. Long after that you feel the call. The esprit that can only be shared among brothers. Among individuals bonded together by the truest of ideals. “Once a Marine, Always a Marine.”
Mr. Renard is survived by his wife, Valerie Adams of Ewing, MO; his parents, Frank and Lydia Renard of Mayfield, KY; one son, Steven Chance Renard of Ewing, MO; two brothers, Stefan (Bev) Renard of New Concord, KY and Mark (Misty) Renard of Scottsville, KY; two sisters, Ellen (Sammy) Crittendon of Wingo, KY and Lisa (Jackie) Egner of Mayfield, KY; several nieces and nephews; and several great nieces and great nephews.
