Janet,
Was so sorry to here about Dick's passing. I enjoyed many years of friendship with Dick at Sears. I always admired his beautiful neckties. He always proudly said he had you to thank for them. Dick will be missed by many of the Sears Family. I was fortunate to see Dick in Ocean City for lunch in September. An Occasioin I will remember always. My thoughts and Prayers are with you and your family at this difficult time.

To the Merryman family, I am so sadden by your loss. I met Mr.Merryman at Sears 29 years ago when I was a dispatcher and he was a tech. I always called him Mr. Merryman or just Merryman. We were all like a big happy family back then in the good old days. Mr.Merryman always had a big smile and a kind word and a good joke for everyone he met. He truly was a merry man and will be missed by all of his old friends.I am proud to have known him and honored to have been his friend. I will keep you in my thoughts and prayers and please know it there is anything I can do just call me. Love, Bonnie Carnaggio

Pat and I are devestated by the loss of such a good, good friend. Dick was the type of person that if you needed him, he was there at the drop of a hat. He and Pat became friends when they worked at Sears and remained good friends up until the end. I never in all of the years I've known Dick, to not have a smile on his face or a nice thing to say.
Out deepest sympthy goes out to Janet and the family and please know that if we can do anything for you, let us know.
We will miss Dick, especially Pat.
