Dear Diane;

Fred and I were so sorry to hear of Dick's passing. We have both been friends with him for many years. I worked with Dick many years ago at The Patriot Ledger, and was very proud to have been able to call him "friend". Our Love and our prayers to you and your family.

Love, Fred and Janet Miller

I am so sorry to hear of the loss of Monti. He was such a nice man. I will miss sharing movies with him, and making him the occasional pizza. My thoughts go out to his family and friends.

To the Monti family, I worked at the Patriot Ledger with Dick for a long time. We had a lot laughs over the years. Dick was a super guy and one of the nicest guys you could ever meet. God Bless you, Al Spadorcia

My husband I will miss talking to Monti every Tuesday at Paddy's. He and John liked to share a laugh over some of the odd Newspaper headlines from the NY Post. A sweet man that ever was! He will be missed by so many people!
