Richard "Dick" Philo Crisman Sr., 77 of Allegan, passed away Sunday, November 27, 2016 at his home. Mr. Crisman was born January 11, 1939 in Allegan, the son of the late George P. and Josephine E. (Pifer) Crisman. Dick was a mechanic by trade and spent over 25 years working at auto sales dealership, Gordon Bahre, in Allegan. While most men might find mowing the lawn more like a job, Dick loved to mow the grass and enjoyed being outside in the fresh air. He also spent time strumming on the guitar. With his large family, spending time together was always entertaining with much smiles and laughter being shared. He will be greatly missed. Surviving is Dick's loving wife, Sharon; his 9 children: Richard and Corinne Crisman, Renda and Ray Raab, Ronda and Jim Weeks, Robin and Alan Dumont, Roxana and Scott Swaim, Terry Burkhead, Mike and Ruth Burkhead, Gilbert Burkhead, Karla Steinke; many grandchildren and great-grandchildren; his brother Roger "Pete" Crisman and Bunny Showers; and his step-sister, Mary Tourangeau.
