Eva Martin notified me of Dick's passing. I am certainly sorry to know Dick is no longer with us.
He was truly a good man and left a legacy long to be remembered.
May the Good Lord continue to bless you and be with you and your family in in the days, months and years to come.

So sorry to read of Dickie's passing. I have fond memories of the two of you as young people setting an example of how to live and conduct oneself. Also, Dickie and Uncle Richard were the go to source for help with cars that were worn but all we had. Times have changed so much and you two were part of great improvements in our standard of living. I always respected you and the good you gave. Our prayers are that you find peace and comfort knowing that he lived a committed and productive life.
