Richard G. Drum

Although we lost contact after the college years, I knew Rick would never change and would always be the kind, gentle person I was used to. From everything I have read, it is true. Rest in peace Rick.

Icky Ricky you will be missed by all of the Anderson Family. You were always there for us in our time of need. Our only consolation is that you are now with Ed, probably drinking lots of Stingers. Thank you for being such a wonderful person. We will always talk about your antics.

Sue, I am so sad and shocked to hear of Richard's passing. I know the times I have seen and talked to him may not add up to much but he always made me feel like a friend and so naturally I think of him as a friend ans you as well. He was always so fun to talk to and Spike just loved him soooo much! It always made me smile when I would see him and Spike come into the shop. I am truly sorry for your loss and would like to do anything you may need not only at this sad time but anytime. ...

Ricky Drum: Congratulations, my friend, on living the life you wanted. I recall a conversation the last year or two when you expressed satisfaction that you had followed your fathers’ conservative advice and lived your life as you were at that time.

At our age, hindsight seems clearer. I look back at our friendship of 50 years and the other friends from that time and realize that these were the best friends of my life. You always had a good laugh for everyone’s gaffes,...

Dear Sue & Jonathan~ We are shocked and completely saddened to hear about Rick. Anita called us the other night to let us know. Jeff and I immediately started talking about stories and "shenanigans" at your home in Eagle River. So happy we "crashed" your family reunion a couple summers ago. We will miss him:) Hugs, thoughts and prayers to you. Be strong.

~Love, the Minnesota Wolfer's

How dare you leave us Richard! What will we do without your sassy banter and quick whit?! We all know you're looking down at us laughing because you have an in with the Big Guy. We all expect you to keep an eye on us from now on since we have a new guardian angel named "Dick". Bet you thought you were going to be on a permanent vacation. Too bad. We need you more than ever, so get to work watching over us. Guess it's double overtime for you, mister . There are lots of us you left behind...
