Not sure what to say?

Nine years have passed, but I still recall our friendship when Dick lived up North. When he moved, we talked periodically on the phone and stayed friends until the end. Great man.

I still miss our visits , and later, long distance phone conversations with Dick. Six years have gone by very quickly. Great memories of our friendship.

Robin & Lloyd
I, like Debbie Gilluly, have many fond memories of the times spent at your house & your very warm & welcoming parents. So sorry for your loss.

Richard, you will be missed, especially your dry sense of humor. I will miss sharing my birthday cake with you. Robin will be fine, we know you will be watching her from heaven.
Rest in Peace!

Robin, I remember your dad and mom well. They were a wonderful couple. My father told me your dad had passed. I spent many days and nights at your house and loved your family like my own. My thoughts and prayers to you and your family.

Dick and I met in the early-1980s when we both worked for General Dynamics. Even though he retired a year after we met and I was 30+ years younger than him, we stayed friends until he passed away. Dick was honest and direct and didn't tolerate any phoniness. He was a very loyal and loving husband, parent and grandparent. I will always treasure my friendship with Dick Sherman. May all the good memories help Robin and all his family get through this tough time.

Miss you grandpa

I miss you daddy, there is nothing like the love of a daughter for her dad, you were always there for me and now I hope you have reunited with grandma Ada and grandpa Ward and Uncle Ed and mom and everyone you missed throughout your long life. I'm sending kisses to you in heaven daddy. Rest in Peace. Love you, Robin
