I knew Dick briefly- he was always filled with laughter and sincerity- My memories of Dick are fond- he was truly a great guy- a wonderful father-in law to my brother. God Bless

My deepest sympathy to Cindy and Patty and rest of Dick's children, Dick was very good friend of mine and I will truly miss him. I know that he will be at peace now and can watch his Eagles play from up above. I hope god has a pool for him to play because I know he truly enjoyed playing my pool. May god bless!

I am so sorry to hear of the passing of Rich. I lived on Bridge St as a child and played with Rich and Bobby. Take solace that his life had meaning and is living on in the lives of his children and grandchildren.
