Not sure what to say?

Senko family: Dick was one of a kind...whenever you were around him, he lit up the room. God bless Dick and his family.

Dear Eileen and family: I am so sorry to hear of your loss. I did not know Dick well, but remember him stopping in the health office when I worked at EFA. Dick was always friendly and upbeat... and the love for his family, students and community shined through. Sending you all strength and peaceful wishes until you meet again.

To Eileen and family, I was saddened to learn of Dick's passing, my thoughts are with you at this time. He was deeply proud of his family, a cheerleader/coach to his teams and students and the weather man/role model to all. We will miss him, may God comfort you.

I coached with Dick for many years at EFA. He was an awesome coach in every sport. I also played many years of fast pitch softball with him. I remember the night he hit a home run against the number 1 pitcher in the world. (Ty Stofflet). He was a great husband and father to his family.

To the Senko family:
I want to say how saddened I am to hear of Coach’s passing. I was fortunate that I got to meet him when I was recruiting for the University at Buffalo early in my coaching career and we hit it off immediately because I am a BW grad as well. I had great respect for what he was able to accomplish as a High School football coach and we are very proud of what he stood for. Coach was clearly a “BW MAN”! Please know that our thoughts and prayers go out to your family...

Eileen and family, it is with a heavy heart that we view Dick's passing. There are many fond memories of times with Dick-- working at the Branch Office, playing softball and flag football with him, and having the honor of both of you gracing our lives as members of our wedding party. Dick lived with passion and energy and we are sure that his traits will live on in your family. Our doors, our hearts and our arms are always open to you should you come this way again. With outlive we send you...

My Deepest Condolences to the Senko Family!

Eileen and family, Sharon and Burt, I’m so sorry to hear of Dicks passing. Being next door neighbors during our high schools years we spent many hours together doing some pretty crazy things. If we weren’t at Brand Park pool or Dunn Field we were at the lake spending all our time on water skis. It was hard keeping up with Dick but I can honestly say it was a lot of fun trying. Dick will be missed but the memories will always remain.

Eileen and family, I send my deepest condolences. Coach Senko had a positive and life-changing effect on my brother Tommy Niles. Coach encouraged him to get back into sports during a very difficult time in his life. Tommy would simply say, “Thanks, Coach. You are all in my thoughts and prayers.
