Greg May God bless you and your family in this time of sorrow.

Dear Greg my Sincerest condolences for the loss and love of your father he is your angel now may he rest in peace

I´m so sad to see this. I´ve been worried about him. I´ll miss seeing him at Lotties. He always made my day with his big smile and his funny sense of humor!! Thinking of you all!

We were saddened to read the news today about Dick passing. Knowing him was a gift and a pleasure. Our condolences to Greg, Amanda and all the Shettle clan.

A wonderful guy. Always a delight to be with. Friendly as a pup and never big-shotted himself or took advantage of his offices. Full of humor and was tickled by the silliness of situations and some people. As earnest a person as most of us will ever meet. He will be missed.

Richard Shettle Always A Gentleman/Scholar. During My Days In The Media I Was Blessed In The Early Days At WKND/Radio To Have An Office Just Outside The Corp Counsel's Office On The Second Floor. We Shared A Love For Hartford Developing A Sincere Respectful Personal Professional Friendship In 1978 After The Civic Center Roof Collapse. May Dick Shettle Rest In Peace.

Very sad news. I'll no longer see him behind the wheel of his Caddy smoking a cigar. I met him at the Corporation Counsel's Office and always thought he was a very decent, humble man with a great sense of humor who loved cigars and sports. Sincere condolences to his family.

As we mourn the loss of an incredible person and uncle, we are both BLESSED by having you in our lives. This is not a good bye, but until we see you again.

Dick was best friends with my father Lucien F. Grillo. I'll bet they're playing cribbage and chewing on their cigars up there. My condolences to the family.
