Not sure what to say?

Cousin Anne,Dick was a good husband, Father and a friend. Those who knew him , knew him as a joker, a good friend and a swell guy. Many good memories will never be forgotten. He will be sadly missed. Our love to you and your family. love to you Anne, cousin Jackie, Aunt Betty and Paul.

Every morning, for 180 days each year, for two decades, I greeted Dick with his cup of coffee on the second floor of Lincoln High School in the Science Dept. office. He was a respected colleague and a trusted friend. The fish and game he would occasionally bring to the teachers' lounge was always accompanied by tales of his trips. He will live on through his hundreds of students who passed through his classroom door.

So sorry. He was a great guy. Rip

I haven't seen Dick since he was a young man attending the University of Rhode Island. Dick, my brother Steve and I (all members of Chi Phi fraternity) fished together many times and became good friends. He has stayed in my mind for over 50 years. Now he will stay in my prayers.

To Dick's Family
Please accept my condolences on your loss. We will miss our Chi Phi Brother.

Some people enter your life and never really exit even if you never see them again! Dick Mandeville was one of those people to me. He could fill a room by his very presence, even before you heard his roaring laughter and booming voice. He was always in motion ready for action. As a young man, I knew him as a woodsman, fisherman, athlete, fraternity leader and I hold as great privilege, the honor of calling him Fraternity Brother.
Ann, our deepest condolences go out to you, your...

Dear Anne, Jessica and Seth, I am so sorry to hear about Dick's passing. I have very fond memories of spending time with our families growing up and all the laughs that we shared. Please know that my thoughts and prayers are with you. Warmest regards, Nichole (Jasparro) Sorockyj

So sorry for your loss. Best teacher I had in high school. Our Prudence Island field trip was the best ever.

My deepest sympathy on the lose of FishDoc. Richard was a fishing acquaintance since he did his cardiac rehab. in my program. He was my top source of striper fishing conditions in RI. He will be missed on the water.
