Doed & Family,
Jean and I were saddened to hear about Dick's passing. As, you know Dick had a significant impact on my life. He always acted like my father as I worked for and with him a NWB. I have great memories of him as a mentor and loving friend. Jean and I remember him as a strong family man with compassion and love for those under his care and guidance. I know that I'm a better person just to have known him.
We are sorry that we could not attend his "Celebration of Life" today.
We ask that God continue to Bless and Keep your family during this time of sorrow.
Love you all,
