Dick has been my lifelong friend. I am deeply saddened beyond words to lose such a treasured pal.
Uncle Dick was a wonderful person. I have such fond memories of our time together when I was a child and as an adult visiting w/ my own children. I’ve known no one as nice, kind, and generous. He was one of a kind and will be missed immensely. Many tears were shed upon his passing, may he rest in peace.
Cousin Dick was one of my favorite people in the world. He radiated love and kindness.
Uncle Dick is certainly one of a kind! Never quite knew what he’d say or do next. He definitely kept us on our toes and entertained when we were up to visit. He’ll be in our thoughts and prayers always.
Dick was a dearest friend for many years! His Father and Mother were good friends to my Papa and Mama, and we kept in touch throughout the years, even though since 2005, I have
been living in Columbia, SC. We laughed and shared together on the phone, and I will treasure the times he took me to lunch and breakfast at the then, Perkins Restaurant. He will be greatly missed.
