I went to school with Dick at Pitchin and Green Special. Last time I saw Dick was at 50th anniversary of Enon Class at Blair Folck's. We were good friends in those early years. We all must pass on, so I say blessings to him for the priviledge, but sorrow to those who remain. 317 Sycamore Glen Dr. Miamisburg, Ohio 45342-5709
