Our loving family member Richard Fred Grove joined our Father in Heaven on June 4, 2012.  He was a long time Moses Lake, WA resident that moved here in 1980 after retiring from the City of Scobey, MT.  We considered him a bachelor cowboy that loved horses, his western hat, western shirts and his cowboy boots.  He also had a love for dogs and always had a companion that was very special to him...Chico, Slick, Bubba were very lucky dogs!!  He bought a piece of property in Cascade Valley and turned his large garden into a field of flowers that we all enjoyed as he would share them with us.  As his aged progressed we asked him to move to an assisted living center and he lived at the Monroe House for 2 years.  Eventually he moved to Summerwood and lastly to Lakeridge where he spent his final days at age 85.  He is survived by his sisters Dorine Crites of Moses Lake, WA, and Arlene Ferestad of Four Buttes, MT, and his brother Oliver Grove of Denton, MT.  He was a veteran of the Korean War and gave to many military charities.  His love of family will be greatly missed by his nieces and nephews that benefited from his care.  God Bless you Uncle Richard...we miss you very much but are so glad you're not suffering any longer and are in Heaven with the rest of your family.
