Richard L. "Dick" Boucher of Pauls Valley, Oklahoma was born to Clarence Dale and Margaret Ann (Choate) Boucher on January 11, 1949 in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma and passed from this life on February 20, 2020 in Norman, Oklahoma at the age of 71 years.
Dick grew up and attended school in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma. He always wanted to be a policeman and worked as one for 17 years. Prior to becoming a policeman, he did many jobs, basically anything anyone wanted. He did painting, woodwork, house building, car repair and was an electrician. Kathie Davis and Dick were married on October 5, 1968 in Oklahoma City. They loved children and one of their greatest joys was being foster parents.
The kids always remember a joke he pulled on them – he would tell them to do something and would call them back after they walked off and would ask "how far would you have gotten if I hadn't called you back"? This was all a part of what folks remember about him. Always laughing, always helping and encouraging. In his spare time, he restored cars, flipped cars and continued his woodworking.
