Esther, Andy and Family,

I was informed of Dicker's passing this morning and it hurt! What an awesome guy - from playing volleyball in the backyard to talking Tigers he was a pleasure to be around.
I am very sorry for your loss - the world lost a heck of a fine fellow and a darn good bowler as well.

Love and prayers to you all.

Dear Esther and family,
It has been many years since I worked at OFS and since I have seen Dick but always remember what a fine man he was and a perfect gentleman as he dealt with so many different types of people coming and going in "the yard." A good man and a dedicated family man, to be sure. You are in my thoughts and prayers in the days ahead.
