Richard P. ”Dick” Stellard, age 70, of West Olive, passed away unexpectedly on Wednesday, March 10, 2021. He was preceded in death by his father, Peter Stellard. Dick was a loving husband, dad, and grandpa that was blessed with a great sense of humor. He was the former owner of Dick’s Custom Processing for many years until his retirement. Dick was an avid gun and knife enthusiast and made custom knives for his family and friends. He was a member of the Howard City Black Powder Conservation Club for many years, establishing many friendships there. He will be lovingly remembered by his wife of 52 years, Ginger; his daughters, Amy Stellard, Ann Jacobs; four grandchildren and three great-grandchildren; his mother, Irene Stellard; his siblings, Susie and Mel Hutchinson, Tom and Ruth Stellard, Harry and Karen Stellard, Lorna Bosch, Louise and Mark Yowtz; many nieces, nephews, and dear friends. A private family memorial service to honor Dick’s life will be held at Matthysse Kuiper DeGraaf Funeral Home with Pastor Dennis Gilbert officiating. Those who wish may make memorial contributions to American Diabetes Association.
