Not sure what to say?

In life you meet many married couples......but it is so rare you meet a couple like Dick and Roberta. Individually they were both caring, interesting fun people to know. As they say, "they were good people". However, together as a married couple they soared above the rest. Their love for each other was so easy to see, so honest and natural for them both. I always walked away from them saying "I don't know what they got but boy do they have it. They REALLY love each other". So to Dick...

I'll never forget one of the fastest Ford Falcons in the county. He could really make them go. Miss you.

Roberta, Richard, and Daniel, I am sorry to hear about Dick's passing. When you reflect back on your life you realize there were a few people who truly made an impact on who you are today, Dick was one of those people for me. He taught me many lesson from both a business as well as personal perspective, I still carry them with me today. I wish your family all the best.

Always a pleasure to talk to on the many subjects we had in common. Dick will be remembered by me as a friendly, down-to-earth working guy who enjoyed life who took great care of his friends. I will miss him.

So sorry to hear of Dickys passing. I have many memories of him as my neighbor in Topsfield. I remember him falling asleep on our kitchen floor and just stepping over him. He and Sammy would ride around the yard on his tractor. Rest In Peace

So sorry for your loss. Dicky will always be a wonderful childhood memory of mine. I remember him falling asleep on our kitchen floor....we would just step over him! Rest In Peace neighbor ❤
