Richard Alfred "Dick" Acey

I was about 11 years old when Richard married my sister Margaret, it was the occasion of my first pair of long trousers! This was in Oldham, Lancashire, a mill town in the north of England. Imagine the curiosity about an American, and a GI at that, coming into the family! He was a lot of fun but also very kind and convinced our parents that he would properly care for Margaret, which he did. Here´s a photo from the wedding - parents, 2 grandmothers, and Aunt Rachel.

And, we were remiss to mention that from about 1993 to 2021, Richard lived in Culpeper, VA, and spent many hours helping people with computers and having coffee at many places around town!
