Dear Phyllis and family,
We have so many wonderful memories of Dick, the parties, the quizzes, the Leland weekends and, of course the wonderful travel adventures. We are very saddened that he is gone! He will be missed.
With Love

Such a great mind. Dick really loved Christmas and puzzles. A fellow professional, he went out of his way to help others. Pro jump shot, a modern intellectual. Miss him.

Dick was the mayor of Michigan fuller park and always kept order on the basketball courts. Disagreements were short with Dick running the show. You were there to play and not argue. A basketball junkie who was an all around good guy. RIP faithful servant. Terry Bocian

Dear Phyllis, Dave, Steve,
Paul and I are very sorry about Dick's death; but we witnessed his heroic struggle these past few years in continuing to fight the battle of life.
In so many cherished memories we all continued to enjoy his forever off the cuff toasts of wine to what we all will remember as life lessons! Forever missed--never forgotten! Love Paul and Shirley Belden

Dear Johnson Family,
The Bergin family has so many wonderful memories of Dick that we treasure. May your memories be a comfort to you all during this terribly difficult time. I doubt we'll ever meet a man more interesting and interested in the world around him. The time and energy he lavished on those around him was a gift.

Dear Phyllis and family,
I am so sorry for your lose but I know that someday you will be reunited. May your memories sustain you until then. Dick was a wonderful mentor to me when I first came to Northview and I will never forget his words of help over the years. I owe a great deal to him. He is with God now but never forgotten by me.
