Richard “Red” Ryals

1934-2023

Richard “Red” Ryals went to be with our Father in heaven on June 10, 2023, at the age of 88, in Seal Beach, California. He was a great man who always celebrated life, even in his most difficult times. And Richard was a man who would desire for us to celebrate his life rather than mourn his death.

Richard was a veteran, a man of God, and a warrior. He was born on Oct. 12, 1934, in Long Beach, California. Richard served in the army as a proud soldier from 1957-1959. Richard was an active man of God who regularly served in the church and he was a beacon of light and joy to all of those around him. His love for others was evident in all he did and said. Richard will be greatly missed, but he will continue to live on in our hearts and minds.

Richard leaves behind five beautiful children: Jay Scovill, Linda McClelland, Carolyn Trevino, Michael Ryals, and Lisa Ryals Page, along with many loving grandchildren and great-grandchildren.

Those who want to celebrate Richard’s life, join family and friends on July 7 at 11 a.m. in Clubhouse 4 in Leisure World, Seal Beach, CA.
