Name Richard Jackson VOLLRATH [1, 2, 3, 4, 5] Geburt 5 Jul 1922 Sheboygan, Sheboygan, Wisconsin, USA 
[4, 5] Geschlecht männlich Gestorben 15 Mrz 2006 Sheboygan, Sheboygan, Wisconsin, USA [5] - Richard Jackson Vollrath died on March 15, 2006.
He was born at home on July 5, 1922 to Florence and Walter Vollrath Sr. Richard attended Lincoln School, and graduated from Central High in 1940. He received a degree in mechanical engineering from Yale University in 1944.
Richard joined the Navy after graduation, and was commissioned a lieutenant J.G. When he left the Navy he was the commanding officer of the minesweeper YMS449.
Richard entered the family business after his military service and worked at the Polar Ware Company for forty-three years. He sold his interest in the company in 1988 and he and his sons started Vicom Ltd., where he served as Chairman.
In 1948 he married "the finest woman I ever met," Jean Law-rence, of Sturgeon Bay, Wisconsin, who preceded him in death on August 27, 2000.
He is survived by four children, Christopher; Eric (Patricia Scheibel); Barbara Merriett (Stanley); and Heidi Kendall (Patrick); four grandchildren, Barnabas Kendall (Maki Teraoka); Molly Kendall; Gretchen Vollrath-Sharkey (Jason); Martha Vollrath and her fiancée Matt Mathiason; one great-grandchild, Tristan Kazumi Kendall; a sister, Mary Garton; a brother, Walter Vollrath, Jr.; many nieces and nephews; and his loyal pal, Balu, man's best friend.
He was active in civic affairs as a volunteer with Planned Parenthood, the Boy Scouts and the Sheboygan YMCA, and was a member of the Sheboygan Yacht Club and Pine Hills Country Club. Richard loved hunting, fishing, golf, traveling, Thursday lunches and summers at Elkhart Lake. He enjoyed all he did with a joie de vivre that was infectious.
Richard's philosophy on life was pretty straightforward - "I think a sense of humor is absolutely necessary to enjoyment of life. Life can be a lot of fun if you let it be fun. Also, I'm an optimist. Being an optimist doesn't mean I'm not a realist. I just don't see much sense in being sure everything is going to go wrong and feeling miserable all the time. You may as well be happy until the worst happens. Then you handle it and move on to something else." He also said, "I'm glad I was born in Sheboygan and that I have basically spent all my life here. I've known lots of people and have good friends and family, and there is no greater blessing than that. My one wish for the whole world is, of course, peace, and I believe that day will come." An optimist to the end.
