HAUSLADEN, Richard C., February 6, 2026, of Forestville, NY at the age of 81 years.  Beloved husband of Diana (Przybylak) Hausladen.  Loving father of Darleen (Christopher) LiVecchi, Leane Dexter, Melanie Hausladen and Jocelyn (Gary) Balone.  Grandfather to six and great grandfather to one.  Beloved brother of Diane (John) Glenn.  Beloved son of the late Charles and Margaret (Loesch) Hausladen.  Also survived by many nieces and nephews.  Richard was a proud Vietnam Veteran.  He was employed at Buffalo Color for 36 years.  A real-life MacGyver, he could fix almost anything with creativity and determination.  He was known for his quick wit and jokes.  His greatest strength though, was his endless patience and love as a father to four daughters, including one with special needs, whom he cherished deeply.  No prior visitation.  A celebration of life will be held at a later date.  Arrangements by Wentland Funeral Home, North Collins, NY.
