Not sure what to say?

Richard was my supervisor at AP&P, he was great to work with, very understanding, and someone with a hugh heart.

Agent Lindsay was a wonderful person. I appreciate having known him during his career and volunteer work with AP&P after his retirement. His kindness, jovial spirit made a wonderful workplace. May your memories of this gentle giant make you smile. He has left a wonderful legacy.

Dick left a huge legacy on all those that had the privilege to know him! He was everyone´s greatest fan. He will be missed but never forgotten. Prayers of comfort to the family.

Sorry for your loss he was a great man

Clyda and family, I was shocked and saddened to find this obituary this morning. Cousins Dick and Stan (and later you Clyda) were such a part of our lives growing up, and part of my fondest memories. I remember dragging Main Street in Heber with Dick (he must have been 16 or 17) when I was a kid. He had a white fuzzy dice hanging from the rear view mirror. I had a difficult time understanding this ritual until I got older! I am so pleased that he found you Clyda!!! You have offered a...

I met Dick at College of Southern Utah! We became friends immediately, we both loved sports & would talk for hours. Dick was a walking encyclopedia on the subject! After College we happened to moved into the same area in Murray & Dick showed up at my door as my Home Teacher. I wasn´t interested in religion back then, but since it was my dear friend we reunited & evenually my wife & I moved into an apartment above Dick & Clyda. We loved living by the Lindsay´s. Dick & I could talk about sports...

I spent 25 years as a Probation and Parole Agent, Richard was one of my first Supervisors. I learned much from Richard about being fair, firm and nonjudgmental. I also learned some new vocabulary words along the way. I called just over a week ago to try and come see Richard but I got no answer, I wish I would have tried harder. A good man and a great friend and mentor. I will miss you my dear friend

I knew Dick well from work as we were hired about the same time in July 1974, although I worked in the Cedar City office. I don´t remember his "colorful" language as I probably spoke the same language. I do remember the great knowledge he had of sport trivia and anything you wanted to know about sports. I am sorry to learn of his pain and health problems over the past several years. My heart goes out to the family at this time, but I´m glad his pain has ended. My sincere condolences.

We will miss Dick Lindsay, his zest for life was unmatched! He cared about people, and you knew it!
