I knew Dick from Toastmasters. He made many contributions to our organization and his fellow Toastmasters. It was a pleasure to see him awarded his "Distinguished Toastmaster" Award. Dick truly was a distinguished Toastmaster. He will be remembered with fondness and greatly missed.

In an industry where it is tempting to take shortcuts, Dick was a man of integrity. He taught me that it's always worth taking the time to do the job right. I think this attitude may be the greatest gift he has given his co-workers.
My heartfelt condolences to family and friends.
