Richard H. Hauter, Sr., 91 of Oceanport, passed away peacefully at home on Thursday, August 11, 2022.
He was born in West Long Branch to the late Grace and Oscar Hauter in 1931.
Dick was raised in West Long Branch and graduated from Long Branch High School in 1949. After high school, he served his country in the U.S. Navy, on the LST 980, USS Meeker County. He met the love of his life, Dorothy and they moved to Oceanport, where they began their family together. He was a member of the Carpenters Union, Local 225 for many years and retired as a Superintendent of Construction with PJ Saker Const Co. Freehold NJ. He was also a Capt. with the Oceanport First Aid and a member of the Hook & Ladder Fire Dept. He enjoyed and was a member of the Long Branch Ice Boat and Yacht Club.
Dick was a man larger than life and of many talents. He was an avid sail boater, who enjoyed sailing his boat the “Hello Dolly” in the summer and ice boating in the winter. He was a private pilot and over the years he and his wife traveled to various places in his Cessna 172. They also enjoyed several cruises, most notably Alaska, Bermuda and the Panama Canal. Most of all, Dick loved spending time at home with his family.
He is predeceased by his parents, and siblings Edward Hauter, Robert Hauter, and Betty Oldford.
Surviving is his wife of 67 years, Dorothy “Dolly” Hauter, his daughter Donna and her husband George Dowd of Brick, his son Richard Hauter Jr. of Brick, four grandchildren Erin, Daniel, Brittani, and Taylor, four loving great-grandchildren Grace, Addison, Madelyn, and Logan, many nieces and nephews and his sister Eleanore Aras of Red Bank.
Visitation will be held Monday, August 22 from 4 – 8pm with a funeral home service and military honors offered at 7:30pm at the Woolley-Boglioli Funeral Home, 10 Morrell Street, Long Branch. Cremation will be private.
In lieu of traditional remembrances, the family asks with gratitude that memorial contributions in his name be made to the Multiple Sclerosis Foundation (https://engage.mymsaa.org/donate).

Rick: I was sorry to read of the passing of your father. He sure was an Adventurer by land (motorcycles), sea (ice boating, sailing) and by air (flying). And your Mom was the perfect companion and willing sport to join him. I wish your family smiles and memories of a man who lived life thoroughly. May you all follow in his trail.

Such a beautiful memorial. I will always cherish the great memories I have of my Uncle Dick, especially growing up! My brothers and I always thought of him as our Uncle Dick; G.I. Joe... Big tall man with the big hands! Moving away to FL I did not see him as much as when I was growing up and when I did see him he always made it a point to take an interest in my life and chat with me! Rest in Peace..... Love you always

Growing up across the country I didn’t have the opportunity to know uncle Dick but the times I visited I was so welcomed. Having lost my father (Dicks brother Ed ) at 13 I always appreciated the east coast relatives. Rest In Peace Uncle Dick. Love Jill and family.

I cannot think of a better way to describe Dick then to say a really great person. Large in stature and in personality. Hardworking, loyal, easy to be with and well-liked by all who worked with him. We worked together for over 30 years and he was one of our family. An incredible amount of talent. It appears as if there was no job, large or small that he could not handle and never a mean word uttered. We will miss him as will all of his friends and Club Associates. We all lost a “Really Great Guy”. Our Love to Dolly and the children, Donna and Richard.

Dick was a wonderful man and the best neighbor we could ever ask for! He and Dolly were always so kind and loving to our two children and we have many fond memories of visiting them in their back sunroom while Little Augie played with their cat Albert. Dick had a sharp mind, a one-of-a-kind spirit and we felt like he could fix anything! We enjoyed going to a few events with Dick and his family at his boat club. It was such a pleasure to know an extraordinary person like Dick. It wasn't too long ago we'd watch him take off on his motorcyle on beautiful days...and he always went on his long walks with a golf club! We will never forget him. The Zilincar family sends our love to Dolly and the entire Hauter family. Our deepest condolences.
