Volk, 80 a life-long resident and farmer of rural Webster, ND passed away on Wednesday, February 26, 2020 at his home from injuries sustained in a farm accident. Richard Volk was born on January 13, 1940 in Devils Lake to Thomas and Marcella (Lemer) Volk, one of 11 children. He grew up on the family farm and remained on the farm the rest of his life. He attended the Webster School, which was a 2 ½ mile walk away and graduated from St. Mary’s Academy with the class of 1958. He farmed as a son until his parents retired and then was the owner and operator, with no plans to retire from his passion for farming. Richard was united in marriage to Kathleen Senger on April 14, 1964 at St. Joseph Catholic Church in Devils Lake and for nearly 56 years lived a married life of devotion to each other, sharing the joys and the heartaches of life with love and faith. Richard was always an active member of his church and the many communities he was a part of. He was an active member of Sts. Peter and Paul Catholic Church, rural Webster and Assumption of Mary Catholic Church in Starkweather where he was a CCD teacher and lector at Mass. He was a life member of the Knights of Columbus and since 1995 has been a member of St. Joseph Catholic Church. Richard faithfully served on the Starkweather School Board for 13 years, the Webster Township Board and the Ramsey County Fair Board for many years and was part of North Dakota Land. He also enjoyed membership in the Elks Lodge and felt a duty to be a member of Forward Devils Lake. Richard was a prodigious reader. He read the newspaper from front to back, any book that he could get his hands on, would research and consume knowledge on a wide range of subjects. In later years as a traveler with his daughter Wanda, he went to each country with great anticipation and always with many questions. He traveled to Argentina, Colombia, France, Germany and the Ukraine. While in Europe he was able to visit where his parents lived and even discovered some relatives. He never tired of tending the soil and was an avid gardener. Richard’s passion was for farming, but his true loves were his family and his Lord. He felt blessed to have many days of good conversation and a good cup of coffee with friends, neighbors and strangers. Those so precious to Richard include his wife Kathleen; children Wanda Archer, Superior, CO, James (Veronica) Volk, Denver, CO and Brian (Tracie) Volk, Webster, ND; grandchildren Maxwell Volk, Nolan, Nixen and Maizie Volk; siblings Mary Riley, Fargo, ND, James (Janet) Volk, Seattle, WA, Kathryn (Earl) Obermiller, Fargo and David (Joyce) Volk, Marionville, MO; in-laws Edward (Emma) Senger, Santa Maria, CA, Johanna Maggard, Rapid City, SD, Mary Jane (Kenneth) Volk, Aiken, SC and Shirley Faber, Bismarck, ND; many nieces, nephews and cousins; special friend Ron Thomas. He was preceded in death by his parents, precious son Allen, sisters Margaret Barstad, Walburga Wallace, Loretta O’Connell and brothers Frank, Leo and Thomas Volk, in-laws Joseph and Mary Ann Senger.
