Read MoreAs I prepared for the many things on my calendar today, the email reminder of Dick's passing six years ago brought back memories of first meeting him, and the many places and things shared during our time of knowing each other. Thanks for bringing back fond memories of a kind and caring friend.

The world has lost a good man. Richard was great at whatever he did. He was a great athlete and had a sharp sense of humor. He was a good pilot and friend to many at Robertson Airport, Plainville, CT. We all shared many a walk on the flight line with
him.
My deepest sympathy to the family. Dick will forever be remembered for the gentleman that he was and missed by all.

Deepest sympathy to the Cephas family. Dick was a down-to-earth & humble guy. I met him when I was a road rep with GMAC. I also had the pleasure in playing in a Chevrolet scramble/foursome golf event. He even took the time to give a well-needed golf tip.

Dear Jo Ann, Thanks for calling to inform me about the death of Dick. I often think of the wonderful time we had in Trinidad. It was also nice to see you and Dick in Ann Arbor. Peace to you and your family.
