I am a cousin of Dick's late wife Audrey. We lost contact with him after Audreys death but for the ten years that I knew him and his children there was no kinder or cheerful man that I have ever known.

I only regret not keeping in touch.

Richard, so sorry to hear of the loss of your father. You probably don't remember me but we went to school together in Sauk Village, IL. May the peace of God be with you always.

I am saddened for the Derosier family, for their loss. When I was in 8th grade, I wrote an essay and won the honorary "position" of trustee, and Mr. Derosier the trustee that I was representing. He was a nice man and I was happy to have been able to have met him.
