He was born in Miles City, Montana. At the age of 3 they moved to Plains, Montana. He went to school and graduated from there.

He was drafted in the army and spent two years. There he met Sue and when he was done with the service, they were married.

Richard and Sue lived all over following Richard’s logging jobs.

Then they continued to move around. In 1983, Kim gave them their only grandchild, Matthew Lee Krings.

Richard then got offered a job in Spearfish, South Dakota where he worked until he retired. Richard enjoyed his life.
