Our thoughts and prayers are with you always. We can't tell how often we talked about all the great experiences we all had together and all the wonderful memories.

Our thoughts and prayers to the family. Uncle Dick had a wonderful love of life and he was always woven into our family stories and our memories -- especially the tales of mischief and growing up as a twin with our Dad. I was recently at Lawrence Academy and found a font of more memories there. In true Irish fashion, we'll keep the memories alive by telling and retelling the stories.
Deepest sympathies and lots of love from all of us,
Charlie, my wife Julie and our boys Will, Riley, Gabriel and Jack.
