I was surprized and sadden to hear about Dick's death. I'm a cousin of Vivan's and I enjoyed hearing about Vivian & Dick's world travels . We started taking cruises the last ten years and we used to share our experiences . I used to meet once or twice a year for lunch with them when my Aunt Sara lived here in Seattle and always had a good time and alot of laughs. My deepest sympathy to Dick's sister Joyce and to my cousin Harvey.
Take care and you are in my thoughts and prayers.
Love,
Cecilia (Young) Ives
PS. sorry I can't make it to the memorial service ,I have to work that day.
