So saddened by this news, along with the passing of Dick's son Scott. We had no idea...they were both the most wonderful friends, and Dick was our neighbor in Newport Beach for many years. We have such wonderful memories of both, and oh how we will miss them. Love to his family, Rob and Arnel Gustavson

Dick was a dear friend to the Rape Crisis Center, and Operation Safehouse. The staff and Boards of Directors for both agencies were always grateful for his interest, support, and friendship. We will miss him, but will not forget his acts of generosity or his "red" jacket. Sincere wishes of sympathy to the family. Jan Duke (Board Member)

Dick was always very kind to all the grand kids. I loved talking football with him and he was always interested in what I was up to when I got to spend time with him. His charity and generosity will never be forgotten. We love you Eric and Shelly very much, and our thought and prayers are with you.
