Will always remember RBK from the IBM days. When you saw him coming towards your desk and his hand like in a holster position ready for the firm handshake to start the day. The wall to wall grin was also a trademark of RBK and he was motivation to start the day.. there was only one RBK full of stories to 6tstart the day.

Dick was my boss, my friend and my mentor over the many years we worked together at Norton. After we both "retired" I loved occasions when we would see each other at the Boynton or O´CONNORS. Have a beer, reminiscing and as always...that laugh. RIP Dick.

Dear Mary Ann and family. We are so sorry to hear of your loss. Our condolences at this difficult time. Warmest regards, Michael & Barbara Rynne, murrells Inlet SC

I want the Kennedy Family to know, We at Norton Company really liked Dick so much! He was always "Upbeat" and really thought of us as friends more then just Co-Workers. He made every day a lot more interesting and pleasant to be there, it really was a family! We will miss him, he was a great man.

I am sorry for your loss. He is my brother in the bonds of our Phi Kappa Theta brotherhood. I am in Paul's graduation class, so I had the honor of his friendship for two years. May he find eternal rest with our Lord

Mary Ann, I am so very sorry to learn of Richard's passing. He was always such a gentleman in addition to being a kind person with a wonderful sense of humor. I know that he dearly loved you and your family.

I spent some years living next door to "Mr.Kennedy". I was just another kid, in a neighborhood of lots of kids. That didn´t stop "Liz´s dad" from being genuinely interested, patient, kind, encouraging and thoughtful with "all" of us. He had a way of making folks feel special in his presence. A true gentleman, and someone a "kid" could look up to. The world has been made a better place because of his energies. May God continue to bless the Kennedy family in their time of loss.

Mary Ann, our deepest sympathy to you and your family on the loss of Dick. Please know that we will miss seeing him and that you are in our thoughts.

Dear Mary Ann.... We are so saddened to learn about Dicks passing! We had so many wonderful times with you both back in our IBM days! Love always Betty and Leo
