  [S927] Obituary. Richland, Wash. Einan's Funeral Home Richard Warren Shannon, age 71, passed away on June 28, 2009, in Richland, Washington. Dick Shannon was born on April 22, 1938, in Bismarck, North Dakota. In 1960, following their graduation from North Dakota State University, he and his wife, Karen Salaba Shannon, moved to Richland. After several years at Payless Drug in Richland, Dick purchased Fisher's Pharmacy in Kennewick, which he operated until his retirement. Over the past 49 years, Dick was involved in a number of organizations and ventures throughout the Tri-Cities. Dick had many interests, though besides his family, he especially loved hunting, fishing, and traveling, and had many fond memories of his time outdoors. Dick lived life to the fullest, though he will be most remembered for those he helped. He will be dearly missed, but never forgotten. Dick was preceded in death by his parents, Paul and Rose Fleck Shannon. He is survived by his wife, Karen; brother Paul, of Bismarck; sister Mary Shannon Hoger, of Benbrook, Texas; son Bradley, of Ponte Vedra Beach, Florida; daughter Kelli, of Seattle; daughter-in-law Ann Colburn Shannon; granddaughters Hailey Shannon Napier and Taylor Shannon; grandson Parker Shannon; and countless friends. Family and friends are invited to a celebration of Dick's life on Sunday, August 2, from 1:00 p.m. to 4:00 p.m. at the Meadow Springs Country Club in Richland.
