I am blessed to have known you, Dick. You took the time to visit us when you visited in Massachusetts. I so enjoyed the small reunion at my home on Beach Rd., the fun gatherings at The Park Lunch, and when the NHS gang gathered. You were a good person to many and will never be forgotten. Janet

RIP – You were always an intelligent person with whom I could disagree on politics but it never got personal and I wish we had one more chance to sort out the world’s problems.
We’ve been close friends ever since we first met in the 5th grade in Newburyport. During all those years we had many great times and a lot of laughs. I miss you greatly, Dick. You will not be forgotten!
