"He who has gone, so we but cherish his memory, abides with us, more potent, nay, more present than the living man."



If his son Michael is any measure, then Dick has left behind more riches than a man could reasonably ask for. He has touched so many and shall be missed...accept my most sincere and heartfelt sympathies.

So sorry to hear of Dick's passing. He was my first employer in the early 80's. He gave anyone he hired the opportunity to take the lead and excell at an assigned project. He had great faith in his employees.
