He was born in Jack- sonville, Fla., on August 31, 1951, to Glenn and Darlene Devin. He spent most of his childhood in North Bend attending high school there, then eventually transferred and graduated from South Umpqua High School in 1969. That same year, he joined the family business and Standard Oil. He married Sandra Devin “Sam” Janssen in 1970. Later that year, they had their ¿rst child, Richard Jr., and over the next seven years added two more, Doug and Renee. They lived in Myrtle Creek surrounded by both sides of the extended family until 1974, when they moved to Crescent City, Calif. In 1978, Devin Oil Company acquired the Arlington, Condon and Heppner bulk plants. Dick’s father Glenn wanted to return his family to his childhood home area of Eastern Oregon where he loved the small town values and honest work ethic of the communities. Dick, his wife and kids would call Heppner home for many years with all three kids graduating high school there. While the kids were growing up, Dick coached and supported all the local programs. He was an avid fan of watching his children playing sports and was often seen pacing the sidelines at a football game. He has many lifelong friends from the Heppner area. Later in life Dick moved to Kennewick, Wash. Now, with eight grandkids, he was never lacking a sporting event or program to watch. He was so close with each of the grandkids, talking to each of them almost every day. He was proud of them and they were proud of him. Dick was still the presi- dent of Devin Oil Company, a company his dad started in 1952. In his adult life, Dick only had one boss — his dad. After buying the company from his dad, he greatly expanded the business throughout Eastern Oregon and Washington. Dick ensured the company was a huge supporter of all things local, espe- cially for kids. Dick lived a very full life, having many great experiences through travel, car buying, gol¿ng and huge sporting events. He was a friend to all, kind and generous beyond measure. He left a lasting impact on everyone who knew him. He is survived by his father, Glenn Devin and his wife Dottie, Canby, Ore.; his sister, Diane McNaugton, Hermiston, Ore.; his sons, Richard Devin Jr. and his wife Tiah and their children Derek, Drake and Avery, Hermiston, Ore., and Doug Devin and his wife Stella and their children Matthew and Andrew, Kennewick, Wash.; and his daughter, Renee Wilkins and her husband Tim and their children Kannon, Kennisyn and Karver, Herm- iston, Ore. Dick was preceded in death by his mother Darlene. Graveside service will be held on Friday, April 15, 2016, at 1:00 p.m. at the Hermiston Cemetery, Herm- iston, Oregon.
