Richard Edward Cadorette “Dick” “Mr. C.” R ich a r d E dwa r d Cadorette “Dick” “Mr. C” Born August 28th, 1924 in Detroit, Michigan. Died December 11th, 2013 in Port Townsend, WA. Our most precious husband, father, grandpa, great grandpa, great great grandpa, papa, uncle, and friend Richard “Dick” Cadorette, 89, peacefully entered the presence of our Lord on December 11th, 2013. Our hearts are grieved but we are filled with joy, comfort and hope as we consider the promises of The Lord Jesus Christ. His family is so grateful for his constant, steady, strong yet gentle presence gracing our lives for so many years. Anyone who knew Dad enjoyed his sense of humor, wit, wisdom & spiritual maturity. Dad was born in Detroit, Michigan on August 28th, 1924 to Cecil & Grace Cadorette. As a child he earned money by delivering for a neighborhood Greek store owner, selling the early morning Free Press In downtown Detroit and joining the service crew on a cruise line that toured the Great Lakes. As a young man in September of 1941 Dad joined the navy to see the world. The US Navy initially assigned him to the USS Colorado in Bremerton WA. The USS Colorado was the only battleship not in Pearl Harbor on that fateful date in history, December 7, 1941. After the bombing of Pearl Harbor the USS Colorado was based there. Later in that December Dad was transferred to the USS Marilyn. He was a Yeoman Striker. Dad was chosen to serve on the Admirals Staff where he became the Admirals Talker on the bridge of the Admiral’s ship during 8 Japanese invasions Dad earned several distinguished commendations. He was honorably discharged November, 1945 & October, 1952.

August 28, 1924 — December 11, 2013

W h i l e working at J. L. Hudson in Detroit he met and married the love of his life, Virginia Lee (Cabana) Cadorette. They were married on April 27th 1946. While in Detroit they had two daughters, Kathleen Louise and Linda Lee. In 1950 Dad was called back for the Korean conflict as a US Navy Reserves Yeoman 1st Class. Dad also worked for Ford Motor Company in the pension section of the insurance department at the Rotunda at Dearborn, Michigan for 5 years. In 1952 Dick and Virginia and family packed up and drove to Long Beach California in a 1946 Buick Road master pulling a 35’ Spartan Aluminum Trailer. The trip was made with Dad’s in-laws Eugene & Mary Cabana. There were many who stood with their jaws dropped as they drove by with these new “fandangled” trailers. The family settled in North Long Beach and subsequently North Hollywood, Huntington Beach, Anaheim and the San Fernando Valley. In 1960 a son was born to Dick and Virginia, Richard (Skip) Eugene. Dad faithfully provided for his family having employment at McDonald Douglas as a riveter, Atlas Coverall & Uniform Supply where he rose to be Manager of Route Operations in the San Fernando Valley, CA, Fort Worden in Port Townsend as a counselor, Olympic Hardware, Owner of Dick’s cleaning business and at Port Townsend School District as a maintenance worker and bus driver. A move to Marysville, WA graced Arlington School District where Dad retired after working in maintenance and bus driving. When the graduating class at Arlington

Middle School was asked who they wanted as a speaker they chose “Mr. C”, the janitor. What an amazing moment that was when our Dad took the podium while thunderous roars of approval seemed to lift the ceiling. Dad’s speech was simple, honest and humble but delivered with the air of a professional. We were so proud and happy for him. Dick and Virginia returned to Port Townsend where Dad spent his last years devoted to our Mom. The First Baptist Church with their son Skip Cadorette as the pastor has filled their lives with wonderful fellowship and friends. Dad has played pool at the senior center and walked the beaches with his best friend and wife Virginia. It has been a good life! Dad accepted Christ as his personal savior later in life in response to the scripture… ”Behold, I stand at the door and knock; if anyone hears My voice and opens the door, I will come in to him and will dine with him, and he with Me” Revelation 3:20. His last days were a picture of grace as he battled cancer with patience, wisdom and strength….even at his weakest moments he was strong in spirit. What an example he was and is to all of us. Dad & Mom gave a great portion of their time to children through church activities and community organizations. Many in their communities called them Mr.and Mrs. “C”. They both have made a difference in many young lives and hearts. Richard is survived by his loving wife and best friend Virginia Lee (Cabana) Cadorette. Children, Kathleen Louise (Cadorette) Siegfried and son-in-law Mark, Linda Lee (Cadorette) Dennis and son-inlaw David and Richard Eugene Cadorette and daughter-in-law Rebekah, Grandchildren Steven Siegfried, Melissa (Siegfried)& Russ Peters, Robert & Bri Witheridge , Kathy (Dennis) &

We will gather at The First Baptist Church located at 1202 Lawrence Street, Port Townsend, WA. 98368. In lieu of flowers it was Dad’s desire that any donations be made to The First Baptist Church with designation to “Living Waters International”, an organization that drills new wells with fresh, cold, potable water for small villages around the world. If you plan on attending the service and are using the Coupeville/Port Townsend ferry on Whidbey Island we would encourage you to make reservations through the Washington State Ferry Reservation System. You may send comments, memories and messages to davidandlindadennis@hotmail. com His lord said unto him. Well done, thou good and faithful servant: thou hast been faithful over a few things, I will make thee ruler over many things: enter thou into the joy of thy lord. Mathew 25:21 We miss you but know you are now face to face with The Lord. This is the hope that is within us as we mourn our loss but celebrate the victory of eternal life in Christ Jesus. Your family has loved you beyond measure!
