I worked with Dick for over 30 years. He was always a lot of fun to be around. I had the pleasure of being on his golf team the first year I started to golf in 1978. He was the best golfer in the league and I the worst, We took first place and I still have the trophy. I visited him @ the Hide-a-Way a few times. My condolences to his entire family, He had a great personality and will be deeply missed.
