Richard Duke Piper

It's a day to hear of Dick "Duke" Piper's passing this month. We went to school together from grades 1 through 12; in grammar school, we were in the same classes all 8 years. I remember years of so many of us playing on the school playground together at recess. If I remember correctly, he was our 8th grade class president, too. We graduated from Manchester Memorial High School where we were both in Drama Club together. Dick was brilliant and he was an extremely talented artist. He was always...

Dear Patty and Danny, I´m very sorry to hear about the loss of your brother. My thoughts and prayers are with you.

Tom and Pat, My condolences on the loss of Richard a/k/a Dukie. My thoughts and prayers are with you during this difficult time. God Bless!

My deepest sympathy to Tom and Kris and the entire family. He had a very impressive life. Love Robin.

So sad to hear of Dick's passing. I graduated grammar school and high school with Dick. My wife (Gail McAllister) also graduated high school with him. They were in the same homeroom. I tried to reach him back in 2020/2021 for our 50th class reunion. Would have loved to connect with him again. He always impressed me with how smart he was. Such a talented man. RIP.

I was sorry to learn of Dick's passing in the Manchester Union Leader. Dick and I were at Memorial HS together and, while he was 1 year behind me, we were both Drama Club members and were in productions together. Such a nice guy. It warmed my heart to read about his success in life, both personally and professionally.. My sincerest condolences to his family and friends
