My condolences to the Courtright family, most especially Rex and Marsha. You both were too young to remember me or our family. Dick and Doris were neighbors of ours back in 1953 when I was only six years old. A friendship began between your folks and mine which lasted for years. I'll never forget Doris' love of cats and Dick's for his guitar. I saw them last around 1996 at Speeds Restaurant in Urbandale and they were still the same ole happy couple. I was surprised to learn in Doris' obituary that Mary Jo had passed away. They were good people whom I'll always remember. May all the happy memories help to see you through this most difficult time. Rest in Peace.......Dick and Doris!!
