Saddened to hear of Dick's passing. Dick hired me to work at Bunge in 1983 and I worked for him there for probably 5-6 years. I appreciated the chance that Dick gave me to work there and I have fond memories working with Dick and the other merchandisers on the trading floor. It was definitely an experience! My deepest condolences to the McWard family.

I met Dick thru the St. Louis AgBusiness Club, and several years later, following him as Pres. He was always very friendly and outgoing. A pleasure to visit with and discuss agriculture. I am so sorry to hear of his passing and offer prayers and support to the family. He was one of a kind and will be missed!

My condolences to the wide reaching McWard family. I got to know Dick through my role at American Soybean Association International Marketing in the 1990s and through the ensuing years (an issues) in Agriculture. A keen intellect, proud Illinois soybean farmer and agribusiness leader (Bunge, St. Louis Agribusiness Club and community) Dick was a tireless networker. I learned a lot from Dick and am sorry to have missed the visitation and service. Count me among the many that will miss him!!

I'm so sorry to learn of Dick's passing. I was privileged to have met him over 40 years ago through the grain business when I was with Cargill. We shared interests in grain markets and horse racing; Dick was a valued subscriber to my market letter for the past 15 years. Dick was my 'go to' guy when I had questions about crop production, a positive role model, and will be missed.

Please extend my sympathy to Debbie and family. Dick hired me for my first "official" job out of college. I learned a lot from him at Bunge. RIP

Very sad to hear of Mac passing. He was a great positive influence in a dark period of my life. Will miss him greatly.
