The Louisville Bridge Association members express their sincerest sympathy to Dick's family. You are in our thoughts and prayers. Dick was a well-liked an d good player. We have missed him.

Our thoughts and prayers are with you at this time of sadness. Your dad, my Uncle Dick was special and will surely be missed.
