Richard D. White

Richard Dale White Jr., age 61, of Quakertown, Pennsylvania, passed away unexpectedly on April 5, 2025, at his home in Ottsville, PA.

Raised in Newtown Pa, he was a 1982 graduate of Council Rock High School.

Rich spent his whole life in farming and construction. He most recently worked as a heavy equipment operator for Mullenax Excavating. He had a life-long love of horses, the outdoors, making and building things, and working with his hands. Rich was also into race cars, old tractors, and music. As a musician he played bass in the band Smoked Whitey.

Rich was known for his sarcastic sense of humor and for always saying what was on his mind.

Quick with a snappy comeback or story, he was able to make friends wherever he went.

You are invited to visit with Rich’s family and friends for his memorial service on Saturday, May 3, 2025, at 11:00 am, at Thompson Memorial Presbyterian Church, 1680 Aquetong Rd, New Hope, PA 18938.

He is survived by his son Richard White III and his wife Becky. His granddaughters, Baylee and Mia. His parents, Richard D. and Margaret (Peggy) White. His siblings, Ted White (Wendy) and Robin White Dengler; and by many extended family members and friends. He will also be missed dearly by his fiancé, Kathleen Heston.  

All arrangements are made by Naugle Funeral & Cremation Service, Ltd. 135 W. Pumping Station Road, Quakertown, PA 18951 (215-536-3343).
