Richard Owen "Dick" Mercer

I met Dick through work, but he soon became much more than a colleague. He was a friend, someone to laugh and joke with, and with whom I talked so much about our beloved wine. He taught me many things, especially the love for life. I will never forget Dick, and I will miss him every day.

Really Enjoyed seeing him at Matteo´s! Enjoyed our conversations about wine and travel! Wonderful man!

I am so sorry to hear of Dick's passing. He introduced me to Italy designing my first trip. We became addicted as did everyone who spent time in Italy thanks to Dick. Grazie. Rest in Peace. Arrivederci mi amico.

Many wonderful lunches shared between Dick and Dennis over the years of a loving friendship that meant the world to Dennis. It´s difficult to accept they are gone but I believe they have found each other once again. May the Peace of Christ be with you Dina. Rosemary

Dick was absolutely the glue that held our college friends together over all these years. His love and passion for Italy was infectious and inspiring. We always enjoyed his devotion to his dear wife Dina and family as well. Hopefully there is wine tasting in heaven! God rest his soul!
