HE was my grandfather, and the best grandfather one could ever hope for. I know deep in my heart that he went on to a much better place and that his spirit lives on in the hearts of those closest to him.

I am privileged to have known Dick for a little while. We both looked forward to getting to see each other and visit for a while. In that short time, he became a dear, dear friend. One always knew that if they wanted to see him, just be at the Stamp Store first thing Saturday morning; he would be there. He enriched my life by just being my friend.
