Not sure what to say?

I knew Dick way back when- and he was all of that and more. My condolences to all of his family.

Now that, that is a life.

I am so glad to learn more about your father, Jon and Camela. What a wonderful man! I'm sorry I never met him. Sending your family love.

Dad of my dear friend, who we knew even as teenagers was super cool and someone to admire.

Dick and my dad, Bill Turner, formed the business "Rayturn". I was too young to appreciate him then. However, I recently visited him with my late mom and sister, Jane. I was so impressed by his intelligence, humility, kindness and grace... a real gift to our world.

Our family had the genuine pleasure of living across the street from the Raymonds. Without question, Dick was one of the finest individuals we've ever known.

He was a "gentleman", in the truest sense of the word.

I miss Daddy everyday, but am continuing one of his favorite quotes; "laugh a lot".

A kind and caring man, with an unbelievable sparkle in his eyes. My love to Carole, Jonathan, Camelia and my cousins!
