Not sure what to say?

I feel very fortunate to have known and worked with Dr. Hewlett at WNC. Sending condolences to his family, he was a gift to us in many ways, and will be deeply missed.

It was such an honor to know "Dick". We have many wonderful memories of visits with Dick and Marilyn. The world has lost a very special man.

I was the governance officer of the Diocese of Washington during Bishop Walker's administration and worked closely with Dick when he became historiographer. What a wonderful man! We collected lots of document! He brought order to records that had not been organized well, and taught us all the importance of archival preservation. He and Marilyn were active in diocesan affairs and often seen at various events. They were a lovely couple! Thank you, Dick for enriching my life.

To my Godfather, I miss you as much as I do my own parents.

A privilege to have known him.

When Dr. Hewlett was the historian for the Atomic Energy Commission, he was my first boss in the US Government. He was a very intelligent, delightful and supportive boss. Working on the history of the A-bomb was a high point in my early career. His life was extraordinary and I offer my consolelnces to his family. Thank you.
