Dick was a great friend, one of my best friends, and though we have not spoken for a few years, I will miss his kindness and our friendship. He was a very caring person and loyal to his friends and family, and a pillar of the Crafton-Ingram communities. I loved coaching with him. He did a lot for many people behind the scenes, too. God bless, you, Dick, I know you are at peace with the Lord. My heartfelt sympathy to Mary, Rich, Sally, Dan, and the entire family. His memories and goodness will live on forever through each of you. Peace!
