Not sure what to say?

Dearest Bernie, just learned this terribly sad news today, August 14. We did not spend a great deal of time together, but the bond and connection I felt to Dick was as if we had been life-long , truly intimate friends. With deep regret and sorrow for your loss. Your friends Jon Ross and Ann Fassler.

My condolences to the family. I was saddened to hear of Dr. Felch's passing. I climbed with "Doc", and his good buddy Frank Minunni, in the Adirondacks for several years. We put up a number of first ascents at several cliffs, including "Medicine Man" which was named for him. He always had a great sense of humor and was full of wisdom. He was a good, kind person who loved his family.

WE WERE SO SADDENED TO LEARN OF RICHARD'S PASSING. MANY MANY FOND MEMORIES. MAY HIS MEMORY BE FOR A BLESSING

I was a patient of Dr. Felch. He helped me through such difficult times. I am so very grateful for him, that I had the honor to know him and have him help me. Thank you! My thoughts are with you. Kenedi Cookingham

Sending condolences to the family and friends of Dr. Felch. May you climb free now Dick.

My sincere sympathy to the Felch family. I worked with Dr. Felch for many years at St. Catherine's. He helped many of our most needy children, and was a supportive resource for staff. He took his job seriously, but also showed understanding and a great wit. I also remember him rock climbing at the school on his lunch hour one day! May he rest in peace.
