A wonderful man who gave me my first big break

Dick was family to me. His sensitivity was a true rarity in the ad world. He was one of a kind. I am a better person for knowing him. He was one of the last people to call me "Bobby"…He will be missed.

Laura and I extend our sincerest condolences to Jane and her extended family. I met "Dickie" almost 50 years ago when I first worked at Grey Advertising. Bright, witty, kind. Of course he was always wonderfully dressed. That's why we always met at the Bloomindales's shoe department before we went for lunch!
Richard Karp was one of a kind. I will miss him and smile whenever I think about the funny times we spent together.

Rest in Peace, Dear, Friend.

Sending my deepest condolences. Dick was incredibly kind to me during my career. I started my advertising career at Grey - right out of college - he always watched out for the young kids - I never forgot how good he was to me. My
heart is with his family. Diane Wade

I send my deepest sympathy to the family. Our loving creator invites us to approach him in prayer. Psalm 65 : 2
