Marie, Jerry and Carol,

Sorry to hear that Dick passed away. He was a very kind and good man.

I really got to know Dick while I was building his home on 5th pl. South. It was a real joy working with Dick and Marie. He was the only customer I ever had who spent more time on the job site then the foreman. It was a pleasue and a honor to get to know him.

Sorry we were not able to attend the service.

Dick was a good neighbor…Jack always enjoyed talking with him. We often think about the home-grown tomatoes he use to leave on our porch. Sorry we were not able to attend his service.

Being fatherless most of my life, I looked to Uncle Dick, Jerry, Kenny, and my other uncles as role models.

Uncle Dick was always kind and generous to me and my family. He was always genuinely interested in my well being, greeting me with “How’s Ed?”. I always knew that he was there and that if I needed anything, he’d provide. I’ll miss him dearly.
