Not sure what to say?

Dick and Timmy were the kindest people you could ever meet, so loving, kind and very generous!! They gave unconditionally, silently without recognition, to so many good causes!!! They never treated anyone unkind and gave their all to any project or cause that they loved!! They were both so fun to visit and had so many interesting stories to tell! Gordon worked with Hugh as carpenters for Dick & Timmy for many years!! Dick and Timmy were like family to us and we will miss their sweet spirits...

I feel so fortunate to have met Dick. He and Timmy did so much for our museum and, in our department, we enjoyed their visits immensely. They were a special part of our museum family and we will miss Dick, as we miss Timmy, so very much.

He was a good man and a wonderful fraternity brother. "All Honor To His Name."

He was indeed all the wonderful things you mentioned. He and Timmy are still dear to my heart. They were truly the best of the best . It is indeed our loss.
