I was so sorry to hear that Dick had passed. He was wonderful neighbor for many years, diligently putting up my windshield wipers in the winter, trimming branches off trees and taking me to some appointments when I was unable to drive and had no ride. I will truly miss him. I tried to contact him when he was in rehab, but to no avail. Joe and I are very sorry that we will not be able to attend Dick’s services due to my therapy appointment, but please know that you are in our thoughts. We will always remember Dick for his kindness.
