Richard Benedetti

As the days and weeks pass, and as you return to life's routine, may you continue to feel comforted by the love and support of family and friends.

Richard Benedetti, was an integral member of the Nelson family! As we reminisced about him the other day the kids were commenting how he would give them a dollar :for being good kids" and telling them that I should not be forcing them to do yard work. Justin blames Richard for creating his Diet Pepsi "addiction" due to the garage refrigerator available to him on a regular basis. Clark and Richard would frequently share jokes with each other, and discuss politics. Richard would always like...

Dick and I worked together for many years at Georgia-Pacific in Fort Bragg, CA and Portland, OR. We made many trips together to meetings and in developing new locations for the Western Wood Products Division. I have so many good memories of our time working together. He was my boss, my mentor and my friend. His support and guidance through some very difficult times for me will always be cherished. His sense of humor made even the most trying times at work, and personally, worth working...

Dick will be sorely missed. I will miss our talks and emails about Italy and our Italian heritage along with his ongoing support of Steve and I and our entire family. RIP Dick...until we meet again.

We went to school together all the way to graduating. He was always friendly to all and a great humor. So sorry. He will be missed by all his classmates too.

I worked with Dick many years ago (in the 70's) and am so sorry to hear of his passing. He was a friend as well as a co-worker. I really enjoyed his sense of humor as well as his dedication. My condolences to his family at this difficult time.
