On a beautiful spring day, the world bid farewell to a truly remarkable soul, Richard Lee McPhetridge, who left us on May 2, 2025, at the age of 72. Born on January 20, 1953, in Chattanooga, TN, he spent his final years in the community of Trenton, GA. A man of faith with a heart full of love.
Richards greatest pride and joy were his children and grandchildren, whom he cherished above all else. He touched the lives of those around him with pure love and warmth for the people who meant the most to him.
Ricky will be greeted in Heaven by his wife of 48 years, Vickie McPhetridge and their children Richie and Elizabeth, who have both been waiting many years for this reunion.
He leaves behind to carry on without him, his two sisters Shirley and Bobie, their two daughters, Michelle and Robin McPhetridge, along with their son Christopher. His 15 grandchildren, Jon, Richie, Joe, Austin, Christian, Jordan, Aubrey, Xander, Libby, Cianna, Jonathan, Emma, Brietta, Alabama and Matthew. Along with 11 great grandchildren and many others who will forever know him as PawPaw.
