On Monday September 19th, 2022, Richard Leslie Mabbett peacefully passed away with his family by his side.  Rich was born in Mohawk, NY on June 29th, 1970, to Richard and Kathryn Mabbett.  As a child he thoroughly embraced a small-town life in Weedsport, NY.  Of paramount importance, was his role as a father and husband; nurturing and providing for his family in that small town where he remained until his final days.  In his professional life he was an estimator with various construction companies.  Rich was a lifelong outdoorsman with a zeal for hunting, fishing, or a round of golf, sharing these passions with his family and good friends. In his downtime he enjoyed the solace of reading and woodworking.
