Betsy, Michael and Connie,
I am so saddened to hear of Dick's passing and have so many fond memories of our families sharing holidays and special occasions growing up. Dick and mom could always be counted on to keep the group laughing. I have often thougt about the last visit Dick paid to mom just before she passed and how much that time meant to her. You are all in my thoughts and prayers.

Dear Betsy:
I am so sad to hear of Dick's passing. I will certainly miss him, but I will remember many good days working with him both at the Legislature and at the Public Service Commission. May God be with you and your family.

Betsy,
Although I did not have the pleasure of knowing Dick, I do know how much he meant to you. I found out the news yesterday on my return to work, as I lost my grandfather on Sunday. Thoughts of you are with me constantly. I'm so very sorry and wish I could be of some comfort to you. Please let me know if there is anything at all that I can do for you. Love, Dorice

Dearest Betsy and Family,
I am so saddened to hear of Dick's passing. His smile and a twinkle in his eye just lit up a room!(so appropriate for a Power Boy!)
We shared so many happy times together and those wonderful memories are treasures for all of us. You both are in my thoughts and prayers. Time and events send us in different directions through the years, but you and Dick will always have a special place in my heart. Forty-five years with your life partner is truly a gift!
Much love always,

Dear Betsy -
I am so sorry to hear of Dick's passing. I know how difficult this time must be for you, just remember, he is rejoicing with many friends in heaven (like my Daddy :)) and is with our Heavenly Father and is smiling down on you each day. May God wrap His arms around you with love. You are in my prayers.

Dick was one of the first lobbyist I ever worked with, and he could always be relied on to provide the facts about all aspects of an issue. We are so sorry to hear of his passing. He will always be fondly remembered and all of the family are in our thoughts and prayers. With deepest sympathy, Dixie and Jerry Sansom

Dearest Betsy and Family,
We have been out of touch for a long time but I am sad to hear of Dick's passing. When Henry and I got married back in 1967 he was our best man and I will always remember his smiling face. My thoughts and prayers are with you and may fond memories comfort you through this difficult time.

Dick was my best friend in high school and we also had a ball in Cape May, NJ in the USCG boot camp training. I have very fond memories of all our good times. I am so fortunate we had dinner with Dick and Betsy during the last FSU home game weekend. He was a great guy and really funny and upbeat - we were always laughing. I will miss him greatly!!!!!!

Dick was a good neighbor and could be counted on for a hearty hello and genuine interest in how you were doing. His wave and smile will be missed.
