Richard James "Dick" Ost

Mary and Family;
My condolences to you all. Dick is a man everyone respected for his talent and good nature. He was my boss for my first "real job" and was a great pleasure to work with. He will be missed and remembered for all he did.

To My Dear Friend Paul & Family, My deepest condolences to your family for the loss of this wonderful man. May you find peace and comfort in your many memories of this undoubtedly talented and loved man, whom I did not know. I do know his son Paul, which explains why Paul is such a wonderful friend, loving family member and extremely gifted man. They say, " The apple doesn't fall far from the tree." God Bless you all. Sincerely, Kathy Murphy

Reading all of the wonderful things Mr. Ost had accomplished throughout his life, definitely shows what a wonderful husband, father, grandfather, etc., and respectable man he was on earth. My prayers are with all of the Ost family for comfort during this time of loss. With Deepest Sympathy,

Dear Mrs. Ost, Rose Anne, and family,

I've just read many things I didn't know about your husband and dad's life story ~ so rich in so many ways. How blessed he was to have such a large and loving family! I had to smile when I read that he loved Mark Twain. May God comfort each of you in a special way. My husband and I are praying for you. Love, Jane

Beloved Uncle Dick,

I will always remember the summer we traveled out to K.C. over 4th of July. Uncle Dick had purchased this big fireworks aerial display that he planned to 'launch' in Grandma & Grandpa's backyard. He gathered us all together for this momentous fireworks event and then lit the fuse. The fireworks ignited, went straight up and instantly disappeared over the front of the house! We all laughed until our sides hurt! Over 40 years later, I still remember that 4th of...

Grandpa,

Words fail me at this time. I miss you in ways I never thought imaginable. You've influenced my life with such impact that I'm half-expecting to hear you make a similar comment when I come up with some odd anecdote or something cool about WWII.

Well done, good and faithful servant.
