Richard S. Husted, Jr. April 21, 2022 Richard S. Husted, Jr., 78, of Cazenovia, died peacefully in his sleep on April 21, 2022. Rich was born in Souderton, PA, to Richard, Sr., and Genevieve, and raised in Perkiomenville, PA. He was a graduate of St. Pius X High School, Drexel University, and Syracuse University. He was employed first by Carrier Corporation and then finished his career with the Carlisle Companies. Beloved by his family, Rich is survived by Marilyn (ne Kelly), his wife of 53 years; children, Sara D’Andrea (Scott), Alison Dyer (Alex), and Bradley Husted (Megan), and grandchildren, Katherine, Claire, and Nora D’Andrea, Audrey and Tommy Dyer, and Carter, Andrew, and Chase Husted. He is also survived by his sisters, MaryAnn Patterson (Dick) and Bonnie Ritter (Don); sisters-in-law Jane Yeomans (Bill) and Joan Bernard (Jim); mother-in-law, Violet Kelly; several nieces and nephews, and countless friends. As all who loved him know, Rich could fix just about anything, and gave great advice to all who were wise enough to listen. He was an avid gardener, and a fan of SU basketball and the Philadelphia Eagles. He had a very active lifestyle, including playing tennis, skiing right up until this year, and golfing locally and in Hilton Head. He loved his home and community of Cazenovia. He was a member of the Cazenovia Lake Association, the St. James Church Finance and Grounds Committees. He was a member of the Century Club, The Cazenovia Club, and Cazenovia Country Club. It is difficult to condense 78 well-lived years into a few paragraphs, but Rich will be most remembered for his fairness, his generosity, and his kindness.
