To Pat and family of Dick, remembering him every day and through the holidays just like I'm remembering June. I know it's not the same but we need to remember our love ones. Sometimes things just don't work out like we want them to.
Dick was always a fun loving guy. I worked with him and we did things together that I'll always remember him as a very great friend. Many times I myself question God why he takes our loved ones away from us so early.
May God give you and myself the strength to get though the days and remember those who were with us.

Dear Carls family,
Please accept my deepest sympathy on your loss. He was a wonderful person and always had a ready smile and kind word. I worked with Dick so many years ago at the First National Bank, South Mountain branch. He was truly a joy to be around.

Richard was a joy and always one to brighten my day. He was such an encouragement to me --- we shared many laughs together, as well as some tears. I know how much he loved and cherished his family --- all his "girls" from Pat to Makenna --- and how much he will be missed.
I was a special recipient of his respect and regard for teachers - he always reminded me of how important and impactful my job was; I remember how happy and proud he was when Diane was back home and teaching at Northwestern.
Brian and I were always so grateful for his service to the Lord through his faithful work at Seibert.
Praying that you feel the Lord's strength and comfort at this difficult time.

Uncle Rich,
Jim will always be apprecative with how you stepped in for Dad after his passing. With that said losing you just makes it twice as difficult. You always showed concern for us and our families extended and all. We have now lost another piece to our puzzle... you were a GREAT Man and will be so greatly missed!

A good name is better than a good ointment, And the day of one's death is better than the day of one's birth.
