Trish and Family:
I am so sorry that I was out of town when Dick passed and was unable to attend the service. Dick was a great friend and fellow Lincoln Mercury Dealer. We enjoyed many many golf outings and business meetings together. I will miss him tremendously.

Just a brief note to thank Mr. Jones for having made me the happiest 8-yr old on the planet in 1969, when he personnaly delivered a 1969 Jaguar E-Type 2+2 to my father James Segasture at our home as an amazing surprise for the family.
I'll always remember Mr. Jones as a very happy man who was a great friend to my father.
Our deepest sympathies to his family and his many friends.
