Richard John Boyle, beloved father, grandfather, brother and friend, passed away on 05/10/23. He was born in Phoenixville, PA on November 25, 1955, to John and Lillian Boyle. Richard was a graduate of Spring-ford High School and went on to work for Exelon for an impressive 40 years.
Rick, aka “Hoss”, had a passion for motorcycles and was a proud member of the Reading Motorcycle Club. He was also deeply involved in Veteran Memorial and honor rides and was a member of the Royersford VFW. Richard was a dedicated member of the Valley Forge Fire Club and was an avid Eagles fan.
Rick was always willing to lend a helping hand to those in need, including tending to all the wildlife in his backyard. He was a loving family man and treasured being a father and grandfather. Spending time with his grandchildren, Lexi and Sonny, brought him great joy.
