Walking into the Fox home as a friend of Donna´s was always a joy. Richard (Dick) loved Rosie and their family meant everything to them. It was easy to get caught up in the love and laughter of the life they built. Rest In Peace.

I worked with Dick on the bank robbery squad in the Los Angeles Division from 1970 to 1977. He was a good agent and a good man.
