Death leaves us with a heartache that no one can heal. Love leaves us with memories that no one can steal. Dick possesed an abundance of love through his family and friends. May you be comforted by those memories at this difficult time.

We loved you so much Grandpa! From the Lazy susan table to the used bookstore, to jalapeno poppers at Bill's, the love and memories that we have of you will last for the rest of our lives. We were the lucky ones to have you.
