Richard Schmied
June 12, 1962 - December 24, 2021
Richard Schmied, 59, passed away suddenly at his home in Southampton, NJ on December 24, 2021. Born in Philadelphia, his parents Robert and Elizabeth bought a home in Hainesport, NJ in 1967, where he lived for most of his life. A Rancocas Valley Regional High School graduate of '80, Richard worked at IEH Auto Parts in Moorestown, NJ where he looked forward to joking with his friends at work just as he was the joker at home. Outside of work, Richard loved tinkering with his own cars and motorcycles. He also enjoyed playing with his cat Oro, feeding birds, growing things, and watching the sun set over the water behind the family home. In his youth, he explored the waterways of the Rancocas Creek in his canoe, where he would later go fishing with his only child, Rachel. He is also survived by his siblings Robert Schmied and Christine Teal, their spouses, 5 nieces and nephews, and their 9 children. There will be a small service to be held at a later date. Contributions in honor of Richard may be made to the American Diabetes Association at AmericanDiabetes.org.
