I will miss Dick and the way he always joked with me. It didn’t take long for Dick to reminisce about past silly experiences on the Harley rides with Diane and the group. RIP Dick.
Thanks Julie. It was nice to see you. He’s truly going to be missed.
To Diane, Michael and family,
We are very sorry for the loss of Richard. I remember all of you coming to visit our “huge” family while growing up and beyond. Richard was always kind and a great conversationalist. It was always very evident how much he loves his family. You are all in our thoughts and prayers.
