So sorry to hear about Dick's passing. One of best my memories. When troop 609 went to Boston I got to go Fenway Park for the first time it was like a cathedral. I got to see Yaz Reggie Smith and Carlton Fisk and the Red Sox lost to the White Sox. With Dick's efforts that dream came true for me. RIP Dick
