I am so sorry for your loss. I haven't seen Dicky for years, since my husband worked at Uncle Keith's turnpost business in the 70's. We lost touch with the family.
God bless all of you.
Your cousin, Debbie "Stone" Rohmer

There is no pain in death.
The body, like a sea shell, no longer needed.
Lessons learned and taught,
We are embraced with peace
Greeted by those who love us,
Guided into the Eternal light.

It is only those you leave behind who suffer.
Remembering the funny you, the handsome you,
The smart and talented you.
The loving you.
Too miss you.

We shall meet again, until then you are in our Heart...
