Nobody will ever be able to comprehend the love that I have for you. I truly am so blessed to have had the best of both worlds...a Father who will always be my real life super hero and a Mother who was my best friend. I couldn´t have asked to have better parents than you were. I am the real life example of a Daddy´s girl and always will be. I am so proud that you´re my Daddy. I´ll see you again someday

Hey Dick,myself you and your brothers were always together growing up. Seems as though we were in trouble of some kind or another most of the time. I know we grew apart a little later in our lives, but it seems as though it was just yesterday! I have always loved you buddy! Glad we had a chance to connect before your passing. Until we meet again my friend.

Richard Dann made a difference and left a legacy! He was an amazing man, who cared more about others than he did about himself. The great memories I have fishing and camping with my uncle and Richard are of the best of my life. Richard Dann lives on through these beautiful memories. I was blessed to know Richard, like anyone else who was privileged to share any time with him.
