Not sure what to say?

I had the honor of working with Dick At Taylor Electric Supply. I found him very organized and always treated me well. I'll always remember him. My condolences.

Richard Betts was a lovely person who will be deeply missed by anyone who knew him. He had a heartwarming smile and cheerful greeting whenever we saw him. Richard was always willing to help others and offer whatever was needed. We were blessed to know him and send our deepest condolences to Hella and his family. God bless you.

Dick was one of the finest people I have ever known. He was a mentor and dear friend of nearly 60 years. As a legend in the electrical industry he touched countless lives providing an example of true professionalism, motivation , and love for all. He was deeply dedicated to the Lord, his family and many friends and will always be remembered with sincere respect, love, and admiration. I am proud to call him my dear friend. My condolences to Hella, Jeff and family. Rick Verhaeghe

Prayers for all the Betts family. Dick always treated people with respect, a trait rare in the biz world in which he & we lived. A light to follow

Did Dick attend St. Ignatius Elementary grade school?

I met Dick in 1954. He was my best man when I got married. I regret we didn´t stay in touch. I´m sorry for your loss.

So sorry to hear of Dick's passing. He was a first class gentleman in every way. Knowing him for well over 50 years, I feel blessed to have known him and seen his many accomplishments. My thoughts and prayers are with Hella, Jeff and family at this time. Rest in peace my friend.
