Dick Siefert

March 15, 1933 — June 14, 2021

On June 14, 2021, Richard M. "Dick" Siefert left this earthly world to take his place in heaven, surrounded by the love of his family. He was born on March 15, 1933 in Portland, Ore., to Fred Mike Siefert and Jessie Ann (Knouse) Siefert.

On September 1, 1954, Dick married Lola H. (Smith) Siefert. Lola passed away on October 5, 1996. They had two children, Colleen and Robert "Buz". He lived in Longview, Wash., from 1956-1998, when he moved to Long Beach, Wash.

On March 23, 1998, Dick married Roberta "Robbi" (Newton) Siefert and gained two stepchildren, Conni and Jim.

Dick is predeceased in death by his parents Fred and Jessie (Knouse) Siefert and his first wife, Lola H. (Smith) Siefert.

Dick spent two years in active duty in the Coast Guard and two years in the Coast Guard reserves, and then devoted 40 years to the Coast Guard Auxiliary. Dick had numerous pastimes and hobbies. He volunteered as a little league baseball coach and umpire for many years. He loved the Seattle Mariners, Portland Trail Blazers and Oregon Ducks football. He loved to fish, either on a riverbank, on a lake or on any of his many boats on the ocean. Everyone that knew Dick, knew he would rather be on the water than on land.

Dick's personality was larger than life and he loved to share stories from the past over and over, with anyone that would listen. He was a devoted family man, who loved his family and was always proud of their every accomplishment, big or small. And if they would listen, he would teach them everything he knew.

Dick is survived by his wife Roberta "Robbi" (Newton) Siefert of Long Beach, Wash., a daughter Colleen (Greg) Wade of Longview, Wash., a son Robert "Buz" (Mary) Siefert of Gresham, Ore., a stepdaughter Conni McNamee and family of Canby, Ore., a stepson Jim Maggs and family of Longview, Wash., 8 grandchildren, 11 great grandchildren and a large extended family who called him Brother, Dad, Popi, and Friend.

A Celebration of Dick's life will be held at a later date.
