One of my fondest memories is one of those "unannounced visits" from Uncle Dick. He stopped by to see Mike and I on a Sunday afternoon, brought in his guitar, and proceeded to entertain us! A real original, who I will always recall with a smile.

I've known this man since I was 5. and I'm 48 now, He was like a second father to me as i grew up as a kid.He took me and his daughter Julie so many places, and waited for us no matter how long we took. Playing, rollerskating, or to the movies. He was a very patient man. And was always there for us. He will be truely missed and never forgotten. A big Thanks Richard for being there for me!
