Sending my love, thoughts and prayers to Elinor and the family. I remember the church suppers that Dick and Elinor shared with my family. I know that Dick and my father, Donald Stine (who passed in 1966), spent many hours working together on the church as well as at the Kellogg Company.
Take Care and God Bless, Karen (Stine) Lewis

I remember all of the church suppers that Dick and Elinor shared with my family. As a long time friend of our family, Dick was instrumental in working on the church, as well as at Kellogg's with my father, Donald Stine, who passed in 1966.
I am sorry I could not attend the funeral today but I am sending my love, thoughts and prayers to Elinor and the family.

I worked with Dick and he was very knowledgeable and of course had that upbeat demeanor and happy sense of humor that he was always willing to share with you!
