Dick was a special friend who I first had the pleasure of knowing since 7th grade, in the late 40's. Best basketball dribbler in the Lake Conference and also in the state. Watched his skill at the U of M where we both went.
A loss for everybody who knew Dick.

Todd and Troy,

The Glen Lake Mitey Mites have lost another great man. I will always remember him being the Green Gobbler in the annual coaches game. What fun times we had.

He will be missed, but his memories will live on.

You have my deepest sympathies.

My sincerest condolences. Dick was a staple at Eden Prairie HS basketball games the last few seasons. We could always count on him and Tom being perched in a corner of the gym - home or away - watching Grant play. We will miss him, but will always remember him as a part of those memorable seasons.

Sorry to see the passing of your father. Dick was a real professional to work with in the mortgage business. He also was a delight on our United fishing trips.
