John,
To you and the whole Redpath family, I was so very sorry to hear of your dad's passing. It is very difficult to lose a parent no matter the circumstances. My whole family wants to extend their sympathies as well. Thoughts and prayers are with all of your family during this difficult time.

I'm writing for my mother, Marcia Alberts (Johnson) to express her deep condolences on the loss of Dick. Marcia grew up on Lake Elmo Ave near Dick's family. She wonders if there is a way for her to contact Mince to catch up on old times. Our sincere sympathy to your family. I will leave my email if Mince decides she'd like to contact Marcy to catch up. My Name is Nancy Graf and my email is [email protected]. My mother has wonderful stories about those days and what a wonderful family she had the pleasure of knowing. Peace to you all.

I was very sad to learn about Dick today at work. He was one of the kindest and dedicated employees that Merrick, Inc. has ever had, and everyone loved him! May it comfort your family to know there are hundreds of friends at Merrick remembering him fondly and praying for your family. God's peace to you all.

I am sorry to hear about Dick. I have missed him since I left The Lodge. I remember when he gave me passes to go shop at Munsingwear. Take care of yourself. Dorothe Conroy (via Lisa)

I was sadden to hear this news and offer my condolences to the Redpath family. Both Dick and Eileen were like surrogate parents to my brother, sister and me when we lost our mother and father. Take faith in the knowledge that Dick will be well taken care of by them and his star will shine bright tonight and always.
