I use to love to hear stories from Uncle Dick about his long and exciting trips with the Blue Knights. He got to see exciting places several times, which most people would be lucky to see once. When he set his mind to do something he would tackle it head on. Uncle Dick was very good with his hands and he had a love for new electonic equipment. He use to be able to talk to other states and countries on his many radios. Uncle Dick did enjoy life to it's fullest when he was in good health. It was very painfull to see his pleasures decline after his health issue started. Not to sound selfish, but I always looked forward to the fantastic gifts that Uncle Dick would bring at Christmas time, when I was a kid. Uncle Dick will always have a place in my heart. Love Nephew Stephen

I have good memories of Dick -- he never could understand why I wanted $$$ instead of a birthday cake. I remember him giving me a YoYo and a special opal ring when I graduated from High School (which I still have).

To a boy from 7-10 years old, Dick was Santa Claus . . . .race tracks and more.

I remember Dick Price going on many vacations with our family. He also have the best Christmas gifts! I remember my first flying Cox airplane was from him and tons of GI Joe stuff.

Being cousins, we grew up together and spent many years as best friends. He was always willing to lend a hand, letting us use his car when we didn't have one. Dick was part of our family - teasing the kids about having pizza instead of cake (Chanda wanted the money instead). We shared many memories and will greatly miss him.
