To Millie and the Bosack family:
It was a privilege to know and interact with Richard -- possibly the most upbeat and positive person I've ever known! As he and I collaborated on various initiatives, opportunities and challenges during my employment at Lexington Square, he always displayed a keen intuitive sense and the ability to deliver feedback in a constructive, helpful manner. I considered him a friend and in many respects a role model. Blessed be his memory!

To the Bosack Family-
My deepest sympathies at the loss of your father.

My father lives at Lexington Square and I visited with your Dad and Mother many times when I and my family visited there. My father, Jerry Kronblad, thought the world of your parents. They were both so kind to him when my mother passed away about 2-1/2 years ago.

I will miss seeing your Dad's smiling face the next time I am at Lexington.
Sincerely,
Randall Kronblad

Please accept our heartfelt sympathy for the loss of such a wonderful man. We were patients of Dick for many years before we moved to Montana in 1984. What a great guy he was! First and foremost he was the best dentist we've ever had and our visits were made so enjoyable (not a word you hear about dental visits) by his almost constant delivery of one joke after another. It was pretty difficult not to laugh with tools in our mouths. We always considered him more of a friend than a dentist. May your loss be tempered by memories of the happiness he gave to you and many others

Sincerely, Bill and Audrey Konie, Missoula, Montana

To Dr. Bosack's family-

So sorry to hear about your loss - and what a huge loss it is. Just thinking about him always leaves a smile on both of our faces. He was a great dentist and an even greater man. He will be missed.
