Not sure what to say?

Cindy, I'm so sad for your loss. I remember thinking how perfect you two were for each other and how nervous you both were about that first blind date. It seems like just yesterday. Dick was such a great guy and will be missed by everyone. Im sure your beautiful children will help you through this. I love you and miss you all.

Our thoughts and prayers are with the entire Wickness family during this sad time. He was surely a wonderful man who will be greatly missed.

Cindy & Family, I am so sad to hear of Dick's death. How I remember his first day at Gonterman's when I first met him. He had a warmth & charm that took us all in!! How fun to watch him meet you, fall in love and get married and watch you grow your family. What a great team you two made! I believe that God blessed both of you with each other, and certainly blessed your children with great parents! I pray that God will warm all of your hearts with memories of Dick's life, and that God will...

Cindy, Adam, Emily and Katie - My prayers and thoughts are with you. Dick would brighten up anyone's day and I have many great memories of the times our families shared here in DeKalb. May God's grace bring you all peace and comfort.

Of all the cousins and their spouses, I always found Dick to be among the friendliest and most sociable. When he asked you how it was going, you knew that he was sincerely interested in hearing your answer. He was definitely a people person. And boy did he know how to brighten up a conversation! He will be greatly missed. Blessings to Cindy and the children and all of Dick's family.
