Hubert Richard Harting Jr.

November 7, 1948–August 19, 2020

Hubert Richard Harting Jr., "Rick", age 71, died peacefully Wednesday morning at the Valley Medical Center in Renton, Wash., on August 19, 2020.

Born in Dayton, Wash., a home town he loved and visited often, he went on to Washington State University to earn Bachelor Degrees in Architecture and Civil Engineering, where he met the love of his life, wife, and mother of his children, MaryLou.

The couple made their home in Renton, Wash., where they raised three boys, Geoff, Greg, and Todd, and where Rick earned his Professional Engineering license and maintained a successful consulting business for 35 years.

A loyal and caring friend, father, and husband, Rick will be fondly remembered for his dedication to his friends and family, for being the Cougar that designed the lifting apparatus that allowed the Huskies to get their bell back in its cupola, and finally designing goal posts that overly enthusiastic WSU students couldn't rip down after a big win in Martin Stadium. Go Cougs!

Rick was preceded in death by his wife, MaryLou.

He is survived by his three sons Geoff, Greg, and Todd (Jessica), his two grandsons Lukas and Nikolas, and his brothers Mike and Wes.

A small gathering of close friends and family will take place September 19, 2020.
