I’m so sorry to hear about your loss. He was such a nice man. He surely going to be missed by everyone. May he rest in peace.
We love you!
Sending love and prayers to your family.
We are so sorry. We have wonderful memories of our time as your neighbor in Wyndemere.
He looks so much like his father, who I knew at “Uncle Dick.” I remember Bonnie and how she showed us around
Philly I believe it was.
He was such a wonderful person! Every time I went to his house to view the photos that Jodi had taken of the grandchildren he made sure he came into the room to greet me. Such a gentleman! Always smiling! And then Bonnie and Jodi would tell him to sit down, since his back would hurt. I will have great memories of Dick, even if they are few in number they are memories of such a great man. God bless the entire family!
I am so sorry to hear about your loss. I’ve only met Dick a few times, but found him to be such a cheerful man, even in sickness. My deepest sympathy to all of his wonderful family. God bless all of you.
To the Garwood Family,

Bonnie, I can still remember your dedication to Dunaire Elementary in Stone Mountain. Your children were a joy to teach and ALL of the family was such a great accet to our school through the years.
