Dick was a force of nature and lived life with gusto. He and my father Gene Cain were early partners in Pizza Hut...and I've heard some great stories and enjoyed many laughs with Dick. Although I haven't spoken with him in a few years I always enjoyed his take on life. My brother Chuck Cain & I will keep you in our prayers.

I wish you and yours well.
