Richard James Unterstein, loving husband, father and grandfather, passed away July 18 while vacationing in Maine. Richard was born July 26, 1954 in Massapequa Park, Long Island where he went on to meet, fall in love and marry his high school sweetheart Patricia. Their journey first took them to the state of Maine and eventually settling in Lincroft to raise their two daughters.
Rick had such a passion for life, playing a good game of golf, watching the Yankees, enjoying lake life in Maine and, most importantly, being with his family.
He will be deeply missed by many and the large hole he has left will never be replaced.
He is survived by his loving wife Patricia; two daughters, Allison and Erin; sons-in-law Michael and Brian; and two grandchildren, Michael and Eleanor.
Visitation will take place from 4 to 8 p.m. July 25 at the John E. Day Funeral Home, 85 Riverside Ave., Red Bank.
A Mass of Christian burial will take place at 10:15 a.m. July 26 at St. Leo the Great in Lincroft. All other arrangements are private.
In lieu of flowers, memorial donations can be made in Rick’s memory to the 7 Lakes Alliance at 7lakesalliance.org/donate.
