Richard was born in the Calgary General Hospital on April 21, 1957. He grew up on a farm near Beiseker, Alberta with his parents, Adele Sell and Hermann Sell and his brothers and sisters. Richard lived and worked in Calgary and around Alberta including Grande Prairie, Edmonton and Beiseker.

Richard was a hardworking, dedicated and proud father, grandfather and meticulous cabinet maker and carpenter. He was also skilled in many aspects of the construction and home renovation trade.
