Richard “Rick” A. Bouder, 54, of Lancaster, passed away unexpectedly on Sunday afternoon, July 2, 2017, from injuries received in a work-related incident in Manor Township.

Bouder, married to Rebecca of Lancaster; his two Cavalier King Charles Spaniels: Parker and Lacey; and his UGI co-workers who were like family to Rick.
Rick will be lovingly remembered for being a one-of-a-kind, fun loving, dedicated, always putting others first and his contagious laugh and smile.
Relatives and friends are respectfully invited to attend Rick’s celebration of life service to be held at New Life Assembly of God, 1991 Old Philadelphia Pike, Lancaster, on Friday morning, July 14, at 10 a.m. The family will receive friends at New Life Assembly of God on Thursday evening, July 13, between 6 and 8 p.m., and again on Friday morning between 9 and 10 a.m. The interment will be held in the Millersville Mennonite Cemetery, 435 Manor Ave., Millersville, on July 14, at 2 p.m. All are welcome to attend; meet at the cemetery.
Rather than flowers, the family asks that you take a moment to hug your spouse, child, grandchild, or friend, and walk in the woods for a moment, an hour, or a day. Time waits for no one.
