Hi Dad- it's Bill,
It has been a year now since you passed away; hard to believe.

Thank you, Dad, for never once telling me there was anything I couldn't do because I was a girl. Thank you for letting me play with dolls AND tools. Thank you for teaching me to love animals. Thank you for loving me for who I am. Semper Fidelis Dad. I will miss you.

Dick was a great teacher and a great mentor. I was fortunate enough to work for him when I got my first management job. Due to his guidance and model, I didn't crash and burn. Thank you Dick

I have so many memories of my family with Uncle Dick, Aunt Gerry, Bill, Rob & Susan! I'm blessed to have spent time with them. It's been a few years since we've all reunited...the love I felt yesterday was & is stronger than ever! Dick was an amazing person....kind, gentle, generous, honest, loving & real!

Dick Scheide was a superb leader and a consummate gentleman. Working for him is a memory I will always cherish not only for his insights and personal warmth but also for his great talent for picking talent for his team. He assembled the most amazing cadre of thinkers, leaders and achievers at Bank of New England that I have ever had the pleasure to work with. His loyalty to his people and to the Bank of New England was fierce and he had an effective but gentle way of letting you know when you...
