Not sure what to say?

Cousin Mary,
My deepest condolences. I am Betty Utz Tinney's son Chuck. We met in 1974 and stayed with you and Dick on our way back from Costa Rica. Mom is living with me now. She would love to hear from you.
I remember going up in Dick's Navion and he handed me the wheel...it scared me to death...LOL..then we came home and ate Tin Roof Ice Cream Sundaes...mmm .mm.
Again, my condolences to you and your family as I know Dick was a wonderful man.
Your Cousin Once Removed,...

Our sympathies and deep respect for our Uncle Dick's family and friends over their loss. Uncle Dick was a great supporter of his sisters and brother, and a loving Uncle! We remember him well! From the children of Dick's sister Jane Poorbaugh Whitten; Debrah Whitten Guerra/New Mexico, Cindy Whitten Sioud/Tunisia, Dave Whitten/Pennsylvania and Tom Whitten/New York

Dick leaves a wonderful legacy. A very caring son and family.
We could not ask for better neighbors and our heartfelt sympathy goes out to the family.

Dick was a wonderful person and good friend. Andy Martingano and his extended family have him in their prayers.

Please accept my sincere sympathy. My parents (Homer Charles Oakes & Esther Wilkerson Oakes) lived across the back fence from your brother, Bill, and his wife, Barbara. I don't live in Florida anymore but my son, Glenn Thweatt (also an insurance agent), saw the notice in today's paper and he knew the Poorbaugh name right away. My thoughts and prayers are with your family.
