I am so sorry to hear of the passing of Dick. He and I worked together. We would frequently meet for lunch usually using a coupon from the thick coupon book. He would wear a large adult bib to protect his ties. He had a great sense of humor albeit dry. He was a great conservative we would often talked politics as I am conservative as well. Again I am so sorry for your loss.
