I first had the privilege of working with Dick in the field of addictions some 20 years ago. As a neophyte, I was impressed and inspired by his stories and saying. It might please you to know that to this day I still quote his stories and sayings to inspired and encourage our patients struggling with the diseases of addiction. My condolences to your family in this time of loss and grief, may you be comforted by the loving memory of those whose lives he touched during his long healing career.
God Bless You,
