Richard Dean Hoyt was born in Vineland, NJ (I never knew this until creating this page!) but he grew up in the Rochester/Utica area in the State of New York.  From what I understand, he grew up on a farm and evolved into a BBEM - "Big Butter and Egg Man" - as he always liked to call himself.  He met my mother, Ann after his career took him to Chicago.  They married in 1968, my mother - a beautiful, struggling divorcee in the 1960's with 4 daughters - who takes that on???  for that I will always admire his courage and dedication to that commitment - our lives were all made better because of him.  The family soon grew when Richard's two sons from his previous marriage came to live with us - we were a big family and he provided well for all of us - all the necessities to grow up and be successful adults - love, financial stability,  a good roof over our heads and food on the table, and always laughter!  He had a very successful Sales and Management career in the logistics and transportation/trucking industry and was well respected by his employees and the customers he served.  He was the ROCK in our foundation and will forever be remembered!  

Richard is survived by his son and two daughters from his first marriage , his four step-daughters, two son-in laws, seven grandchildren, two great grandchildren, his sister and his niece...and there may be others who should be added here.
