Dick, the son of William A. and Winifred (McKinney) Hannah, was born on May 10, 1928 in rural Hansell, Iowa. He graduated from High School in 1946 in Hansell and served his country in the U.S. Navy from 1946-1948. On September 13, 1959, Dick was united in marriage with LaDonna Harkema and they were blessed with two children, Bruce and Lynne. In 1973, the family moved to Kellogg where Dick managed the Farmers COOP Elevator for 20 years.

Following Dick and LaDonna’s divorce, Dick was married to Joan Lockwood on June 12, 1987 in Des Moines. Dick enjoyed going to coffee club at Hy-Vee, snowmobiling, going to horse races, playing cards, golfing and bowling. He also volunteered many hours at the Kellogg Historical Society.

Those left to honor Dick’s memory are his two children, Bruce (Shelly) Hannah of Kellogg and Lynne (Greig) Shine of Kellogg; grandchildren, Kendra (Dustin) Cupples, Kari Hannah, Jacob Hannah, Jamie Hannah, Jason Shine, and Jenna (Brett) Jennings; his 5 great-grandchildren and one more on the way; sister, Joan Ghrist of Des Moines; his two sisters-in-law, Marilyn Hannah of Cedar Rapids and Doris Hannah of Hampton; and brother-in-law, Bill Myers of Belmond.

He was preceded by his parents; wife, Joan Hannah; sister, Mary Myers; and two brothers, James “Toad” Hannah and William Hannah. A special thank you to Brenda Damman, R&J's, the Kellogg Community, and Windsor Manor for caring for Dick these last few years.
