Dick was my first Lacrosse coach. His passion for the game and teaching us everything about it was passed to all his players. He was a great coach and it led me to follow in his footsteps and I have been coaching for over 15 years thanks to his inspiration. Thank you for all the advice and guidance. RIP Coach

As a member of Charlie Co. 3rd platoon we were together in Vietnam as infantry soldiers. Only those that were there with us truly knew the ravages of that war. Honored that we survived to meet again in later years. Rest In Peace Dickie, MAC

Dear Jane, Christie, and Family - My thoughts and prayers are with you as you mourn Dick's passing and celebrate the completion of his circle of life. Dick was always a steady hand at St. Ambrose. His friendly smile was always welcoming. May his memories live in your hearts always.

Dick was a great asset as a volunteer at the Lee Kay Public Shooting Range which is where I met this wonderful person. Dick always had great stories and was very helpful to the customers. He will be missed. RIP.
