    Obituary for Richard Poth

    With great sadness but wonderful memories, his family announces that Richard Poth passed away peacefully with his family by his side at Mathews House Hospice in Alliston, Ontario, at the age of 71. Richard will be missed by his loving wife of 48 years, Joyce, three children, Brian (Lisa), Cheryl (Damian) and Andrea (Dennis) and grandchildren Anna, Thomas, Madison, Jacob and Avery.
    Son of Harold and Ruby Poth, Brother of Don (Beth), Richard was born on March 26, 1944 and grew up on a dairy farm in New Dundee, just west of Kitchener. Richard met the love of his life, Barbara Joyce Becker at Baden High School and married her on August 5, 1967. They had 3 children, Brian, Cheryl and Andrea \endash and together successfully balanced parenthood with marriage, work and many, many community activities.

    Richard joined Ralston Purina after graduating from the University of Guelph and becoming a proud "Aggie". He worked for Purina in progressive roles over 38 years, retiring as Executive VP of Finance and Administration in 2003.

    Richard lived a busy life, full of curiosity, generosity and kindness, actively participating in local community groups, churches and charities. Beyond work and helping others, his other enduring passion has been travel, visiting every Province and State and over 50 countries. Richard's curiosity and interest in sharing new experiences, meeting new people, and seeing new things was never satisfied.
    Thanks to Princess Margaret Hospital, local Alliston-based community health care workers and Mathews House Hospice who helped Richard through his brief and courageous battle with esophageal cancer.

    Richard will be missed dearly by the many family and friends he has positively impacted and will always be in our hearts and memories.
    In lieu of flowers, the family encourages/directs donations to any of the following: Mathews House Hospice, JDRF (Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation) or St. John's UC Foundation.
