Richard A. Albright

It is with deep sorrow and profound gratitude that we remember a remarkable life—one that touched hearts and left an enduring mark on all who had the privilege to know him.

Richard “Dick” Arthur Albright, 81, of Omro, Wisconsin, finished his earthly race and entered the arms of Jesus on March 26, 2026, after a courageous battle with pancreatic cancer. Dick passed away at home surrounded by his loving family.

Dick was born on October 10, 1944, in Oshkosh, Wisconsin, to Arthur and Geneva Albright. After graduating from Omro High School, he married the love of his life, Donna Bradley, on June 8, 1963, and enjoyed 62 years of marriage. Together, Dick and Donna built a beautiful life together. Dick was a country boy at heart and loved farm life. As a young man, he enjoyed riding horses, showing cattle, and helping his father haul cattle. As he grew older, he hauled milk, farmed, and hauled livestock. At 81 years of age, Dick finally retired from hauling cattle in January of this year.

He was an active member of Countryside Christian Church, acting as a deacon in recent years and a head usher. For 20 years, Dick and Donna hosted a missions auction at their farm where all proceeds were distributed to Countryside Christian Church supported missionaries. He thoroughly enjoyed preparing for this event and auctioneering the day of the auction with his good friend, Todd Goheen, who proceeded him in death. In Dick’s spare time, he attended sporting events and concerts for his grandchildren and great-grandchildren. He was a card shark and would never turn down an opportunity to gather with family or friends for a good card game. Dick was a wonderful husband, father, grandfather, great-grandfather, brother, uncle, and friend. He exemplified hard work and dedication, enjoyed helping others, and provided unwavering support to his family. Whether it was through his work, his passions, or the relationships he nurtured, he planted seeds that will continue to grow for generations. The lessons he shared, the values he upheld, and the love he gave so freely will live on in the lives he changed.

Dick is survived by his wife, Donna; children, Dawn (Chip) Kintopf, Wendy (Rich) Borgardt, Mark (Karl) Albright; grandchildren, Preston (Abby) Goetz, Breana (Tyler) Egan, Marissa Kintopf, Luke (Nicole) Borgardt; great-grandchildren, Liam Goetz, Brantley Hildebrandt, Colson Borgardt, Charlie Goetz, Micah Egan, and Finley Goetz; siblings, Fred (Bertie) Albright, John (Linda) Albright, Jean (Wally) Jeszke, Jane (Dave) Bauer, Ronnie (Joan) Albright, Steve (Joe) Albright; brothers-in-law, Jim (Dottie) Butkiewicz, Dennis (Cathy) Bradley; sisters-in-law, Debbie Albright, Nancy Bradley; and many nieces, nephews, cousins and friends.

Preceding him in death were his parents, Arthur and Geneva Albright; sisters, Joan (Marvin) Stiller, Judy Butkiewicz, Jody Albright; brother, Ricky Albright; father and mother-in-law, Robert and Marie Bradley; brothers-in-law, Marvin (Betty) Bradley, Dale (Marge) Bradley, Burton Bradley; sisters-in-law, Dolores (Henry) Hedtke, as well as other family members.

A visitation for family and friends will take place on Thursday, April 2, 2026 from 9:00 am – 12:00 pm at Countryside Christian Church, located at 1483 Burr Oak Road, Oshkosh, Wisconsin. A Christian funeral service will be held following the visitation at 12:00 pm. A private family burial will follow at Tice Cemetery.

The family would like to express their heartfelt gratitude to Compassus Hospice, as well as family and friends, for the love, support, and care received.

Though Dick is no longer with us in body, his spirit remains woven into the fabric of our lives. In every act of kindness we extend, in every moment of courage we summon, and in every memory we cherish, his legacy endures.

He will be deeply missed, forever remembered, and always honored.
