I Know we all say it that grew up In That neighbor hood and we all feel it , It was a special place and time,and to be blessed with so many friends even if we don't see each other for years when we do it like we never skipped a beat! If you didn't have that growing up you have no idea!! and Dick and Barb contributed to that in so many ways. I remember when Bob and I stole a cigar of dicks and Barb caught us. she whacked Bob and told me to go home and tell my folks. I did cause she told me to! And Like Jim Scorse said he was a wealth of Info even if some time's back then, we didn't under stand, But we do now! sure coulda used his experience a great many time's in My life. with plumbing and weather, that i did listen to a lot cause of snowmobiling. Huggs to Bob, Tom and Bill. Catch up with ya's soon

What can I say that hasn't been said so many times before. Barb and Dick were such truly special people and they managed to raise a truly special family. I am truly thankful for having the chance to know them and share in the love and pride they have for each and every one of their children and their families. They had such an awesome way of making you feel special and that you were a part of their family as well. I will cherish every moment spent with them. Their memories will always be carried in my heart along with my mom and dad. Thanks for sharing them with us.
God bless,
Jill Wirth, and Tim, Sarah, Bob and Jess too. We love you all too!

Dick and Barb will truly been missed. There are so many fond memories over at their house from swimming in the pool to seeing Dick mowing the lawn or being out front in his rose garden. Sometimes you would see Dick shoveling the driveway 4 or 5 times a night. He loved to spend time outside. He was always busy doing something somewhere. He even would sit on the front step watching my brother throw tools down the driveway. I am amazed Dick never found any in his yard!
Dick always liked to talk about the weather and government that I never understood until now. He always had time to talk to you and listen. I will always miss Dick and Barb, there is a special place in my heart for them. I know they are both at peace now and happy they are reunited. Our neighborhood had the closest group of best friends any neighborhood could ever have, even after all these years the families have grown and multiplied and still we are all still friends.
The Reger Family our thoughts and prayers are with you.

Mom & Dad,
Today is Thanksgiving and although you won't be with us as we sit down to a big dinner with our families I still want you to know what I am most thankful for. I am most thankful that you are both together again. Probably walking hand in hand and telling each other how much you missed each other. Mom don't cook today let dad do it while you control the tv clicker for a change! Yes you will truly be missed today by all of us you left behind but knowing you have each other to spend this day with, and all enternity with, sure makes the emptiness we feel a bit fuller. We love you both. Thank you for all you gave us. Not only the physical things but also the spiritual things. Have a wonderful day.
Love, Josie
ps. tell my gramma happy thanksgiving for me and
that i miss her!!!

To all the Reger family:
Our prayers and love go out to all of you in the loss of your Mom and Dad. Although it has been two years since Barb's passing and Dick's is so recent, it feels like a big loss to you, I know. They were very special to us and we will just have to think of how at peace they are now. It will hurt for a long time but think of the good times and good memories you shared.
They were special and so are all of you! That is what makes you who you are. Take care of yourselves, your families, and love the immediate and extended family you have. We love you. Our deepest sympathy. Momma K & John Kellerson

Tom, Bob, Bill & Cathy,
I can only offer my deepest sympathies. Sorry we haven't kept in touch. This was a double shock to learn your Mom (Aunt Barb) passed away 2 years ago. That does explain the undeliverable E-mails.
Rest assured my and my families thoughts and prayers are with you. I know I will miss them and the link to our family they provided. I loved the stories your Dad used to tell about the antics of Him, My Dad and Charlie. Well they are all together again along with Grandma and Grandpa. Take care.

Dick and Barb as they were known to
me , were and forever will be like a second family of mine .
Many more days of my youth were spent at their home than
at my own .
Never did they tell me to
"go home" or , don't you have your own house ?
Bill and Bob were best friends to me growing up . We all lived together in a wonderful neighborhood full of wonderful people .
Billy , Bob , Cathy and Tom , you are all aware of the feelings I have always held for your parents and I will forever , they were always so very good to me .
I loved them both almost as if they were my own Parents , and sadly miss those days of our youth .
I reflect more and more as those special people from that neighborhood that we grew up in are so sadly leaving this earth .
I remember back so vividly and have missed for so many years Dick's cooking and just hanging around when he was preparing dinner and enjoying the smell of what was on the Stove or the Grill and how I grinned from ear to ear when he would ask me
"Are you staying for Supper" ? ?
I am so thankful to Cathy and Josie for bringing Dick back here to spend his final days , Iam sure he was happy to be back as well , otherwise I may have not been able to visit with him and to reminisce for a time of the days in North Greece before he had passed , that would have made me much more sad .
To all of the Reger Family my thoughts and prayers are with you ,
you are a very special family to me and always will be .
Dick and Barb will forever live on happily in my heart and my memory .
I thank the Lord for them both .
Your friend and Neighbor ;
