He attended the Shook school in his younger years.  After graduating high school Dick worked in the oil fields before getting hired by Southwestern Bell until he retired after 27 years of service. After retiring from Southwestern Bell he became a long haul trucker, farmer and then owned a local water well business.  He loved hunting, fishing and was a very skilled pool player.
