I knew Dick from working at the Secret Service. He was such a nice man and always willing to stop what he was doing to have a conversation. I remember how he collected pins from different offices and had a wonderful collection. He will be missed.

Carol,

I am glad you are surrounded by family at this most difficult time. Know you are also surrounded by loving and caring thoughts of friends distant.

So sorry to hear the news about Butch! I would have greatly enjoyed seeing him at our 50th class reunion in August! I have a couple of snap shots taken of him when we were seniors. If or when it is convenient, e-mail me at [email protected], and I'll e-mail you scanned copies. Penny Swort Sites

Butch was one of the friendliest people in our neighborhood. He always has a smile on his face and a wonderful laugh. May his name be for a blessing.

Hey Butch- I'm so very sorry we reconnected too late for us to meet again.
We had so much to reminiscing to do. Our Brooklyn Dodger/ N.Y. Yankee rivalry; our trips to Forbes Field; hanging out at Dad's restaurant after school and countless others.
I know God will bless you and I will keep those cherished childhood memories in my heart forever.
