Richard Dana Linderman, age 50, passed away on Wednesday, September 1, 2021 in Richland, Washington. Richard was born on August 25, 1971 in Sunnyside, Washington to Donald Linderman and Lynn Twazon.

Richard grew up the youngest of 4 brothers and had a love of sports, especially soccer. He worked different jobs throughout the years and when he got into construction, he found his niche as a concrete mason. He was also an active member of his union. He later went on to start "Incarceration to Inspiration" where he found his true calling in serving his community and giving himself so selflessly. Lutheran Community Services awarded him a "Hope Holder" award which he was very proud and honored to have earned.

Richard is survived by his spouse Tina Warner, his children Cheyanne Peters (Amanda), Cassandra Linderman (Brett), Richard Linderman (Brooke), Ashley Ferron (Andrew), and Breanna Greenough, his grandchildren Bryson Hughes, Bryson Peters, Alaura Langston, Easton Barnes, Alexi, Alissa, Andrea, Aliyah, Andrew, Anthoney, and Ashthon Ferron, his brothers Robert Sample (Suzette), Perry Sample(Cammy) and Steve Linderman (Jackie), as well as his Nieces and nephews Aaron Matzke, Tommy Sample (Jessica), Tony Sample (Alyx), Alecia Sample, Robert Sample (Arie), Dana Sample, Brandon Peters, Bryce Peters, Preston Linderman, Quinn Linderman (Rebecca), and Dominic Linderman.

Richard adored all his grandchildren and made them and family Sunday Dinners a priority. Although we will miss him dearly, we will carry on his legacy and "Take time to Smile" as he would want us to.

Richard enjoyed giving back and helping people. We are passionate about an organization called Mo's Place. They do many things but one of them is helping foster kids with their basic needs, like shoes. In lieu of flowers, we are asking our family and friends that can, to please bring a pair of new shoes to Richard's service that we can donate to Mo's Place in Richard's honor and touch the lives of foster children in our area.

A Celebration of Life will be held on Saturday, October 9, 2021 at 4:00 PM at The Living Room Community Church, 1409 S. Garfield St., Kennewick WA 99337.

Rich was a son, father, grandfather, brother, friend, and mentor.

Prominent member of the Tri- Cities, WA community with Incarceration 2 Inspiration.
Once a Washington's Most Wanted Fugitive, he turned his life around by putting his faith in God while incarcerated. Once he was released in 2019, he started helping those that were struggling with jail/prison, drugs, alcohol and so much more. In just 18 months, he inspired so many people.
"Take time to smile" was something you would hear often from him.

Richard lost his fight with Covid-19. He passed away in the ICU at Kadlec Regional Medical Center in Richland, WA.

A candle light vigil & balloon release was held at Leslie Groves park in Richland, WA on September 4th, 2021.
