Not sure what to say?

Dear Ziska's, I was so sorry to hear of Dick's passing at mass this past Sunday. What a great man! I really enjoyed getting to know him through St. Bernadette's sports programs (Mike's football glory days) and church functions (reverse raffles and mass). He was a classy guy and was always ready with a smile and a story or two. He will be missed. My prayers and condolences to the whole family and may God hold you during this difficult time.

Cathy and family,

Dick was an amazing gentleman.
It was truly a pleasure, and how lucky I was to have worked with Dick at The Darden Company. I want you to know how proud he was of his family and how much he loved you. We both had a love of fishing and I will miss those stories we shared. I send you my deepest sympathies and condolences.

I am so sorry for your loss. Sending healing thoughts and prayers during this difficult time

I am so very sorry to hear of your loss, I know Zeke was an adored father and husband and I’m just so sad to hear this news. I would have loved to come to the services but unfortunately just heard the news this evening and am not local. But please know I’m thinking of you and I have fond memories of Zeke, his playful sense of humor and love for his family.

Dick was a member of the Case Institute of Technology Civil Engineering Class of 1960. He said that perhaps the only member of the class who took a pay cut by becoming an engineer. He always had a smile and will be greatly missed.

In loving memory of a wonderful person. Mr. Z was one of the very best! I always looked forward to seeing his smiling face and wave in the Lakewood Center North building. Mrs. Ziska, Lisa, Michael, and Micki, we are truly sorry for your loss and will keep you all in our prayers during this very difficult time. Please know we are always here for your family. God bless you all and may your beautiful husband/father RIP.

One of the kindest and most fun person. Always had a smile and a story to tell. No matter where he went, even in another town, someone knew him. At ICSC convention, someone always asked about him. I'm so sorry for your loss. A truly remarkable man.

Cathy and family,

I have such wonderful memories of working with Dick. He will always be remembered by me as one of the best people I ever had the privilege of knowing. Always had time to help with anything, and I never tired of hearing all the funny stories he had to tell or the updates on his grandchildren, you, Michael, Lisa, and Mikki, and our after work get-togethers. I can't begin to list all the memories I have, but I will cherish them always. My sincere condolences to...
