I will miss my friend Rich, we played Pinochle and started at the same table every Monday. He was a good friend and I and many others will miss him very much. He was the kind of guy that if you needed help with anything guess who was there Rich of course.
A loyal and loved friend since 1959. Dee (his late wife) and Dick were somewhat "professional dancers". I can picture them, once again, enjoying the music and twirling around in heaven. Dick will be sorely missed by his many-many friends We feel blessed to have known Dick and Dee for 52 years. Fortunately, we were able to enjoy another five (5) years with Dick!
