Obituary of Richard Charles Yerger

Richard C. Yerger 63, passed away unexpectedly on February 7, 2014. Beloved son, brother, uncle and friend, he was a Haverling and Corning Community College graduate. He served his country in the U.S. Army, stationed in Germany from 1971 to 1974. He was a lifelong dedicated Yankee Fan and also an avid bowler during the years while his father was co-owner of Steuben Bowl. He loved Nature, and enjoyed the outdoors. He was last employed at the VA Center in the food service. He was residing at Lake View in Bath, where he was so known for preparing meals for those without family on holidays. Son of the late William F. Yerger, he is survived by his mother, Margaret M. Yerger, brother (late) William J. Yerger, sister Jo-Ann Blowers and brother in law Carl J. Blowers of South Carolina, sister Catherine Remchuck and brother in law David Remchuck of Bath, N.Y. and many nieces, nephews, and cousins. We will sadly miss his kind heart who gave so much to others before himself. A service will be held in the spring, with burial at the Bath National Cemetery.
