He was always there with a smile when we were together. He loved his family and friends, and brought joy to those around him. I'm glad his family had the wonderful gift of his long life.

Growing up near the Brian Mayer family, we loved when Dick and Mickey would come to visit in Illinois. Dick was always warm and funny and kind. I am so sorry for your loss, Mickey and family.
