Dr. Hattrup was one of a kind. He was our family doctor for over 20 years and we haven't meet another doctor that can come close to filling his shoes. He often spoke of his family with love and pride. He will be missed by many but we will cherish the memories he gave us. You have our deepest sympathy.

Dear Hattrups



We enjoyed knowing Richard. I remember him most for his combination of insight and humor, and his smile after a good joke. He always made us feel welcome. We will miss him.
