Left the Range - Richard Marksberry

#1

Post by Matt Fleming »

One of the great things about owning a local shooting range is meeting all of the great people that walk through the door. I first met Richard Marksberry last spring and he frequented the Range many times over the past months. His sons stopped by and informed me of his sudden passing. Richard was a local author and had just completed his second book. His works include "Boot Camp & Beyond" and "The Magnificent Infidels". There are a few reviews on Amazon where his books are available. I look forward to turning the pages and will sorely miss the opportunity to quiz him on his insights. You could sense the love and respect his sons had for their Dad. A Marine, father, and loving husband to Christine for 32 years, Dick Marksberry lived a full life. We are diminished.
