a smoke, Feeding Nicolas and Zoe treats from Dicks bag of chips and solving the worlds problems!! Will miss him. One of the good guys!

Dick was a very kind and thoughtful man - Always willing to help a neighbor in any way he could - Dick always had a smile on his face when I saw him and his sense of humor was priceless. He will be missed.
