We will always remember Dick as a happy, gregarious, fun-loving person. He loved being a jokester as well. He and Tony Pellegrino used to play pranks on each other during football season. He loved going to my dad and mom's house to play darts and cards. We had many wonderful, fun times together. We will miss him a lot. Rest in peace, Dick. Thank you for all the great times our families had together.
Our blessings to your lovely family, Dolly, Corina and family, Teresa and family and Maria and family.

With deepest sympathy Cousins, Joann and Bill Irwin
