Richard A. Greenwood Sr., age 63 of Lincoln Park, died on Wednesday, October 2, 2024.
Richard was the son of Dorothy Greenwood and graduated from Passaic County Technical Institute having played on the football and track teams.
Richard was a true patriot and a man of strong character. He had a quiet strength, keeping his circle of friends close, but to those lucky enough to know him, he was kind, generous, and full of heart. With a sharp wit and a knack for sarcastic humor, he never failed to bring laughter to those around him. A man of many passions, Richard was dedicated to bodybuilding, competing in shows, and loved the thrill of motorcycle riding and the adventure of camping. He enjoyed life to the fullest, whether it was spending time with friends, going on vacations, or just making others laugh. Independent and bold, he was a real man's man who didn’t take a backseat to anyone, but his generosity and warmth always shone through. Richard will be deeply missed by all who had the privilege of knowing him.
Richard was a devoted father whose greatest joy in life was the close bond he shared with his son, Richard A. Greenwood Jr. From the time Richard Jr. was little, the two were inseparable, working on projects together and creating memories that will last a lifetime. Whether it was working on his son's first truck in the Wayne Valley High School automotive shop or tackling countless other endeavors side by side, Richard Sr.'s love, guidance, and unwavering support were constants in their relationship. His pride in his son was evident to all who knew him, and the deep connection they shared was a testament to the kind of father, mentor, and friend Richard was.
