I won't forget Dick. He brought humor to every occasion. I am so glad we were able to spend Easter together this year. He will be missed (even by Oscar and Bernice!)

Last year, Dick came to my home to see my train layout in the basement and after that, he really got into trains. I was over to his apt. last month to see his layout and was impressed. I had hoped to take my son over to see it so he could get some pointers for his layout. I had coffee with him 2-3 times a week at the Layfayette Rest. I sure will miss him; we had some good times telling war stories; Navy verses the Marines.
