September 26, 1941 – June 20, 2018
Richard L. Alexander, 76, Noblesville, passed away on June 20, 2018, surrounded by his loving family. Born on September 26, 1941 in Sheridan to Marthann (Johnson) and William Alexander, he lived his life from a young age in Noblesville, attending and graduating from local schools where he met his wife-to-be and started his life’s work.
Married to Susan C. (Guilkey) Alexander for nearly 60 years, they raised their children, son Robert Duane Alexander, daughters Jenny Alexander (Grant) Byers and Sherry Alexander (Hernando) Sabogal, in Noblesville. Grandchildren are Hunter and Parker Alexander, Alexandra Powell, Paige Byers, Samantha Byers and Hannah Ely, all of Noblesville. Great grandson is Grayson Powell.
Brothers include Michael A. (Kim) Alexander and Stephen R. Alexander. In addition to his parents, he was preceded in death by his brother John J. Alexander.
Dick and Susan shared their life together as partners in business as well as life. For over 50 years, they worked to build Alexander Standard Printing in Indianapolis into a quality graphics and printing company. Dick was a skilled woodworker and an avid sports and golf fan in his few hours of spare time. A passion for their printing business and successful challenges met in business and in life defined Dick. Dedication to family, his work and his community is how he will be remembered by all who knew him best.
A family “Celebration of Life” will be held from 2 to 5 p.m. on Saturday, June 30 at the family residence to honor a special Man, Husband, Father, Grandfather and Great-Grandfather by a gathering of those who loved him most and will miss him dearly.
Memorial contributions may be made to American Lung Association of Indiana, 115 W. Washington St., Suite 1180-South, Indianapolis, IN 46204.
The family would also like to thank all those who gave care and comfort during a difficult time in so many kind ways.
