Karen, Kathie, I was very saddened to hear of the loss of your Dad. He always held a special place in my heart as he took me in during a time in my career that I needed a mentor. From your Dad's special help I learned more than I ever could have elsewhere. We always had big ides's for CASH Solutions! I was very fortunate to run into him last summer and caught up on the good old days. You and your family will be in my thoughts and prayers.

Mr. Hoffmeister's daughter Karen watches my son everyday at their daycare. My deepest sympathy goes to her family at this very diffcult time.

To say Dick was an accountant is a major understatement. He designed and implemented an Oracle computer system in New Hartford that was world class and is still being copied through out the PCC organization. Oracle is very inflexible but Dick wrote his own code to make it user friendly. He was a great boss and a first class guy.
