In deepest sleep one night I dreamed that on the beach I walked. God was by my side each step and quietly we talked. Then on the sky my life was flashed;the visions all serene. Two sets of footprints in the sand were there in every scene. but then I noticed in some scenes of suffering,pain and strife...Just a single set of footprints at the qorst times of my life."God...You said you'd stay by me in good times and in bad...Why the did you leave me each time my life was sad?"

Bill and I were grieved to hear of Dick's passing. We were out of town for the week and did not know about Dick's death until we returned. Please know that we prayed for him each night since his diagnosis and now pray that he has found peace. We pray that the family is doing well.

I am not there, I do not sleep.
I am a thousand winds that blow,
Do not stand at my grave and weep
I am the diamond glints on snow,
I am the sunlight on ripened grain,
I am the gentle autumn rain.
When you awaken in the morning's hush,
I am the swift uplifting rush of quiet birds in circled flight,
I am the soft stars that shine at night.
Do not stand at my grave and cry,
I am not there, I did not die.

What I remember most about Dick was his sense of humor. I practically grew up in the Clum household with my 2 best friends, Dick's sisters, Diane and Donna. I had so much fun with Dick, Linda, Jimmy, Diane, Donna, Gary and Larry. Kay was married and Sharon was always working. Dick would always keep us laughing. There is no one who could tell a joke like Dick!

My thoughts and prayers are with Dick's family and I will always remember the laughter.

Dick was the kindest most gentle man in the world. He had a sense of humor that was to look at him was to laugh. He will be missed in every way possible, and will always be loved.

Dear Jason and family,

I am so sorry to hear that your Dad was so sick. We'll be thinking of you.
