He was born on March 2, 1928 in Bishopville to the late Everett L. and Flora K. Daye McCabe. He joined a brother, Edward L. McCabe, who was nine years older. In those days they didn’t tell ahead of time of a new baby coming. When Edward arrived home from school that day, the nurse told him that he had a baby brother. Right away he said, “Mother has been sick, so she didn’t need a baby for her to care for”. The nurse said, “I’ll take him home with me tomorrow morning”. The next morning Edward looked at baby Richard and said, “He’s here now, let him stay”. Richard graduated in 1946 from Buckingham High School in Berlin.
