Rich if you can hear me you know I still felt responsible for you & my other two younger brothers. I'm sorry I failed to keep you here. However I will always remember the great times we had together. Over these last years we talked very often about so many things. I will cherish those talks forever. God Bless you & keep you.

I always enjoyed the endless stories of Dick's growing up near Beaver Falls, PA, with his brothers. The best to Judy and his remaining family.

Rest in peace Dick.

I worked with Dick during my years at East Windsor and Newtown and was so sorry to hear of his passing. My deepest condolences to his family.
