My fondest thoughts of Dick were our years of working together at Binks Mfg Co. We also spent time on the ski slopes through a ski club we belonged to. It was a long time ago, but I still remember his kindness and humor. May God Bless his soul.

We loved Richard, he spoiled us so with his bad list every week and his kind gestures (mmm chocolate). always enjoyed conversation with him of the bands we all seen over the weekend
we miss him already
I wish your family the best

The Dominican Friars will pray for the repose of Richard's soul in their chapel at Fenwick High School in Oak Park.
May peace find all those who loved Richard.

Offering our deepest condolences during this difficult time.
