Hi Connie & family. I am sorry for your great loss.We have never met, however, Dick and I grew up together on the Hill! There is a pic of Dick in his Scout uniform in the gallery. I am the other scout. We lost contact over the years but I remember all the good times we had cruising Congress street in his dad's yellow 53 Chevy. We used to borrow his sister Nancy's VW and go to the Prides Corner drivein with Dick Candelmo and Mike Taber in the trunk. Once we got inside we would take a spot in the back row and drink beer. Warm Nasty Gannset at that! YUCK!!
Dick was our class Fonzie. A nice guy that worked hard. We will all miss him
