Richard Alan Wokoske, 77, of Whitman, Massachusetts, passed away peacefully on September 27, 2025. Born on June 5, 1948, in North Tonawanda, New York, Richard was the beloved son of the late Leonard and Josephine (Broniszewski) Wokoske.
Richard shared 56 wonderful years of marriage with his devoted wife, Dorothy Wokoske, and together they built a beautiful family. He is survived by their three sons, Scott (Paula), Todd (Jen), and Dave (Lesley), and four cherished grandchildren, Alivia, Benjamin, Sara, and Connor, who brought him endless joy.
A hardworking and caring man, Richard spent many years serving his community as a pharmacist before later working as a school bus driver, where his warm personality and playful spirit made a lasting impression on those he met.
Richard found simple joys in life—watching television, puzzling over lottery numbers, and playing games on his iPad—but his greatest happiness came from making people smile. His humor, kindness, and love for his family will be remembered by all who knew him.
Family and friends are invited to celebrate Richard’s life on Friday, October 3, 2025 from 4-7pm with a service to follow at 7pm at Blanchard’s Funeral Chapel, Inc., 666 Plymouth St., Whitman, MA 02382.
