Not sure what to say?

IDear Family; I had the good fortune of attending Anthony Wayne High School in Whitehouse, Ohio, with Richard. In addition to lettering in all four sports, he was an active member of the Antonians Drama Club, the Generals Band, Boys Glee, General's Dispatch staff, Latin Club, student council, yearbook staff, and later the alumni association. He is remembered in class as, "A pleasure loving swain, to be a playboy is his aim." The Korean War was fresh in everyone's memory while in high school....

Great Memory when Dick took workers on University Village in Bowling Green....Me ,Dan & Jim for a week sailing and crabbing on his family's Skipjack on the Chesapeake Bay...never will forget that trip or "Coach" Richard!

Learning of this so late & yet it has saddened me so much...Dick (We called him "Coach" because he was) was and is one of the 3 most special mentors in my life in so many ways. Business...friendships...life lessons & how to treat family, friends & associates. He was firm but fair & treated people of all walks of life that entered his justly and with the respect they deserved...I will never forget him & still will think of him always & will continue to apply the "What would Coach do & think...

Dear Sally, I am sorry for your loss. Dick was a very special person in my life and I send to you my deepest sympathy.

Dear Sally. So sorry to read about Dick's passing. Your family was so central to my childhood. Sincere condolences to the whole family, Carol Leatherman Kabakoff
