Richard Landon Kassebaum

Dear Kassebaum Family:
I remember meeting Dick at K-State; and I also remember one of his friends told me his last name before he did. That was one of the beautiful things about Dick- he was very proud of his family and heritage, yet very humble and private. I feel so fortunate to have known him.
Dick took in all the world with those amazing eyes, often reserving comment. But I'd always listen for one of his quiet, dry witticisms that would leave me in stitches. I can still see that...

Dear Linda and family,

We pray that the peace of God will comfort you in the loss of your brother Richard.

Wayne and Esther Meyers

Nancy and Family,
My thoughts and prayers are with you all. Great memories are abundant from growing up with Dick and family. From the wrestling years to the painting of the pool. I feel blessed for having the opportunity, and will cherish the talks and advise you so willing shared.

Nancy and Family,
So sorry to read about Dick's passing. I know your family was special to Mom and Dad. They spoke of you often. May God be with you all!

I was so sorry to hear about Dick. You all are in our thoughts and prayers.
Regards, Julie

Llewellyn and Phil, I just found out about Dick's death when a paralegal in Bobby's office saw the write up in the paper. We have been in the mountains for the past six weeks or so and while we received the Post and Courier we did not always read it diligently. We were so very sorry to find out and want you to know that our thoughts and prayers are with you both. We will see you when you return home. Bernie

Mrs. Kassebaum-Baker,
My husband & I were saddened to learn of the untimely death of your son, Richard. A couple of years ago, we began corresponding because of a mutual interest in John R. Brinkley. As a consequence, he came to visit us in our home, on a trip to Kansas. We found Richard to be a most kind, respectful and sincere person and while this was not unexpected, we felt he was certainly your son in displaying these qualities we had seen in his mother over the years as our Kansas...

Dear Kassebaum Family,

My thoughts and prayers are with you, your family and Dicks' friends. I have fond memories of Dick from KSU. He was a very special person.

Nancy...
My sincere thoughts are with you and the family with the loss of your son.
