Richard M. "Dick" DePalma

Use to go to his "Sock Hops" years ago! He and Gene Fullen will not be forgotten -

I never met "Paisan" but was entertained many afternoon watching him serve as a sidekick for Gene Fullen on "Gene's Canteen." He provided a lot of fun to the afternoon after school program.

It would be nice to have such programs now.

Jan,
We are so sorry to hear about the passing of Dick. He will be sorely missed. God sustain you during this difficult time.

Double D,
Your magnetic presence and personality will be missed.

Richard/Dicky,
You filled the room with your presence wherever you walked.Your kind spirit and sense of humor were gigantic.You impacted so many with your "Joy for Living". You and Jan completed each other and set such a good example,as partners together, for all to emulate.

Peace and Love, My Brother!:)

I met Dick thru his involvement with the Whitehall-Bexley Rotary. I always enjoyed his hearty smile & quick wit. He will be missed by all!

We knew Dick's many years ago, we loved his humor and friendship. We will miss him

So many fond memories of traveling around the world with you. You were my life mentor.
You will be sorely missed.
Love ya Dickie

The second Dick would see me or Casey walk into a room, it was all over. He would come after us in the most humorous way. You almost wanted to duck. The thing is, that like everyone else, Dick loved us. Plus, he knew we could take his humor. Often times I would laugh so hard I would hurt. I spent a lot of time, yesterday, laughing and crying. I loved Dick DePalma! I/we will miss him very much!
