DAVE RICHARDS
1968 - 1986
STATION AGENT
DEN SEA?

 
Did you know that Dave Richards is gone?  This, too, is a few years back. 
Dave also started with Frontier about the same time Jim and I did, 
and moved from DEN to SEA station when it opened. I was told he shot himself. 
Never heard more.

There are 207 David Richards in the SSDI.
Can you give me some more info to help pin it down.

Jake,
No, don't have any of that for Dave Richards, but I am asking Larry and will pass it on.

It was brought to my attention about a David or Dave Richards obituary - shows that he was in SEA.  
I was the only City Manager in SEA from opening until closing, 
and the only Richards that I am aware of being in SEA is Gary E. Richards, 
who is still alive and well, and came to SEA from BFF when that city closed. 
Anyway, just curious where David actually was.

Thanks for your info which is very puzzling.
Ron Slater sent me this email years ago before he died:
Did you know that Dave Richards is gone?  This, too, is a few years back. 
Dave also started with Frontier about the same time Jim and I did, 
and moved from DEN to SEA station when it opened. I was told he shot himself. 
I never heard more.
I found Dave recently on a 1970 DEN station roster which had his birthday
then found him at the SSDI.  
Was Slater ever at SEA?  Maybe he got the station wrong.
Let me know what you think.
