Dear Linda, Joe, Lisa, and family, I just found out of Dick's passing. I am in total shock. Dick was a man that everyone loved and respected. There was nothing more important to him than family and friends. I never met anyone who would drop everything at a moments notice to lend a helping hand to someone in need. My thoughts and prayers are with you during this very difficult time. I know what a strong family you have and you will help each other get through this. Dick will be greatly missed by all who knew him. May God bless all of you and may Dick rest in peace.

My
Condolences to the Krysiak Family,
Dick was our sales rep from Old Dominion and it was always a pleasure
to work with him. He was a very kind and caring person. He would talk
about all of you often and his trips up north.(I almost felt like I
knew you). You are in my thoughts and prayers.
Pryers to you all,

Dick will always be remembered in our hearts as the wonderful, kind and funny guy. I will cherish the memories I have of him "picking" on me at the cousin reunion there. I'm so glad we were there with your family. You are a wonderful family and our love, support and prayers are with you.

Dear Linda, Joe, and Lisa,

It's hard to believe that someone so big and strong could be struck down by such a silent killer. Linda, I will always remember the first time you and Dick came to OK when I was a little girl. You were just married. I really thought Dick was a Giant! That's how he will always remain in my heart: a soft spoken giant.

Our deepest sympathy goes out to each of you during this very difficult and seemingly hopeless time. I pray that Dick's soul rest in eternal peace and that you each may find peace through your faith in God's immeasureable love.

Your cousins,
Mary Christina, Michael, and Sam Lovera

Please accept our sympathy at this very difficult time. We are so very sorry for your loss of someone so special. We shared so many wonderful times with Dick and family during our basketball years at Thomas More....he was so proud of Joe's accomplishments. We will keep you in our prayers for strength to handle the pain of your loss.

Dear Linda and family,
I will always remember the time you came to visit in CA. It was a fun visit. Dick was a great guy who made us laugh. He will be in my prayers.

Linda, Joe and Lisa,

Please accept my most heartfelt condolences. I have been praying for Richard "Dick" Krysiak for quite some time. Unfortunately for us who are left behind, the answer to prayer was not the one we were looking for. Only he truly knows the Glory of the Heavenly Kingdom as Dick, a fellow Veteran of Viet Nam War, has been "promoted" to eternal bliss.

Please remember that death leaves a heartache no one can heal and love leaves a memory that no one can steal.

God bless and keep you,

Robin Dittberner

Dick was a part of deer camp for the last 25 years. He was one of the reasons we looked forward to that weekend. Because of him, we have the land and the memories that will last our lifetime. His memory will be eternal.
