Fish in peace. You will be missed.

I have known Dick since 1978 when I became an employee of Inco Graphics. I cannot express how much he will be missed. My deepest sympathy to his family.

My deepest sympathies go out to the family. I worked with Dick at Inco Graphics for about 8 years. He always had a good joke and would bring a smile to your face. He will be missed.

Thank You for all you thoughts and prayers for our family. It is obvious that Dad was loved very much by his family and friends. We will all miss him greatly!

I will never forget the first time I met Dick Beard. He had come to our small home office to bid on the new publication we were starting in 1993. After a lengthy conversation, Dick was more concerned about the challenges my husband and I would face with a new business rather than trying to “sell” us. Needless to say, we soon became fast friends. Not only were my husband and I clients of Dick’s for 16+ years, but friends. We could always count on him to contribute to our annual Christmas...

I will forever remember the many rounds of golf together, the Saturday nights on the slopes, to Wednesday night bowling, to opening day at Tigers Stadium, and the many great times fishing at Batteese Lake in the shanty. Over the years I have had some of the best times of my life with a great friend. R.I.P. Gary

Hi uncle Dick I will miss you very much. I hope you remembered the flashlight I got you for christmas, so you can see your way up to heaven. I will always remember you in my heart. LOVE your great niece Mackenzie 8 yrs old

So make sure to remember all the good times we were lucky to share with him. You all have been a great help and even more important a great friend to my Dad. It means alot to us.

Thanks again

We are thinking of your family in this hard time. Hope Dick finds good fishing in the land of plenty.
