Martha and family

DEEPEST sympathies. Dick was an amazing man, loved you all more than you can imagine. Always a smile, no matter what. He will live on in all of us he touched.

My sincere condolences to the family. I hope that you find comfort in friends, family, and prayer (Psalms 65;2) during this difficult time.

I'm away in Canada and unable to make it back to pay my respects to a man I loved, admired, and even as a young man, laughed with. He, and Susan, and his lovely daughters always were great family friends to our family. To Tracy, Jessica and Cory, I'm sorry I can't make it but your father, and your mother, were both someone I will forever remember with love, and laughter. Except for the Ford Pinto ;-)
