Not sure what to say?

We remember Dick fondly, always ready with a smile or a kind word. Our sincere sympathy to you, Laura and Michael.

My prayers and deepest sympathy to the Kozitka family? I grew up in Staples, MN two doors north of Dick´s home. Remember him well. Often wondered what had happened to him and the rest of the family.

I just learned about Dick's death Mary. Please accept my Deepest Sympathy for your loss. "Those we hold in our Hearts never truly leave us "

Hello Laurie, Mike, and Mrs. Kozitka, I'm so sorry to hear about Mr. Kozitka. I remember your family very well. I walk down Central Park frequently as I live in the neighborhood. Your home was always the house to come to after school (Willard or Haven) to get a Quaker granola bar. Thinking of you all. - Aimee Sriver

I wish to extend my sincere sympathy to Mary and her family. Sorry to read that Dick died but did know he had a long battle with cancer. Please be assured my thoughts and prayers are with you. Ginny Schulte

Heartfelt condolences, Mary. I wish I had known your husband, but since he was married to you, I know he must have been a wonderful man. Thinking of you

Mary, I´m so sorry for your loss. Dick was a great person. I know he will be missed. Prayers to you and your family.

Mary and Family: you and Dick were wonderful neighbors for the 24 years you shared Le Dauphin with us. The Community was very appreciative of you both serving on our Board, arranging pool parties, etc. I am particularly thankful for your communication skills when we served on the Board together. We will miss seeing together at La Playa. Dave & Marian Freund

I remember how kind and thoughtful it was of Dick to go downtown to meet my son John for lunch. John had just graduated from college and sought Dick´s advice about entering the business world. So kind of Dock to do that.
