Richard Hatcher

June 1, 1951 — June 9, 2022

Mr. Richard Wayne Hatcher, 71, of Concord, NC, passed away on Thursday, June 9, 2022 at home in the arms of his beloved Jane.

A memorial service will be held at 1:00 pm on Sunday, June 12, 2022 at Wilkinson Funeral Home Chapel. The family will greet friends following the service.

Richard was born in Lancaster, SC to the late Lucille Pate and Sam Hatcher, Jr. He is also preceded in death by his brothers, Jeffrey Dean Hatcher and Roger Dale Hatcher.

Everyone who knew Richard will remember his contagious smile and positivity with a laugh that captured his joy for life. A quiet man, his actions spoke loudly of his love for his family and friends. He enjoyed vacations to the Outer Banks, adored his cats, liked to cook and discovered the comfort of a good book later in his life. Richard spent time watching military movies, NASCAR races, wildlife programs and sports. He had an Associate Degree in data analytics and proudly worked for many years in the waste disposal industry as a truck driver, trainer and supervisor.

As an honored Veteran of the U.S. Air Force who served his country, and as an earthly angel to his loved ones, Richard has now gained his wings.

He is survived by his life partner, Jane Shaefer; son, Derrick Hatcher of Rock Hill, SC; brothers, Charles “Chuck” Hatcher, Dennis Hatcher, both of Lancaster, SC; grandchildren, Austin Hatcher of Rock Hill, SC, Cassie Alexander of Harrisburg, Jade Alexander of Boone; stepdaughter, Jill Alexander and her husband, Tim of Harrisburg; a number of nieces, nephews, aunts, uncles, cousins and beloved family members.

In lieu of flowers, memorials may be made to Princeton’s Meow, 29 Brookwood Ave, Concord, NC 28025.
