Richard Lee "Dick" Burchett

We offer our deepest condolences during this time to the family. We were able to know Dick over several years living in Lexington and our close relationship with the Spittler´s and Julie´s family. Dick was always in a great mood and made great conversation. He has had some many accomplishments in life and is surrounded by such a wonderful family. We wish the family both prayers and our deepest sympathies during this time. God Bless, Joe and Ceci Bassindale

Condolences to his wife, Leslie and family. I knew Dick, for a short period of time through (my then husband) Larry Fletcher. He was the most sincere, kindest man I'd ever met. He took Fletch under his wing and they became forever friends. Our son, Brandon, said "I hope Dick and Dad find each other in heaven".....I do as well, Brandon, I pray they do.

Mr. Burchett was my history teacher at Finneytown in 7th and 8th grades. He expected a lot and taught us so much. He was a gifted teacher. May his memory be a blessing to his family.

I admired his ability to interact with people whether he had known them for years or just met them. He seemed to really be present during an interaction which is notable in our world of distractions and sound bites. Like to think of him running, he loved it so.
