So sad to hear of Dick’s passing. We worked together at the golf course and he was always there to greet me when I came in on Saturday and Sunday. He was one of the best starter/rangers we had on our park district staff. Always willing to lend a hand whenever and wherever needed. I hate to be cliché but “They truly don’t make ‘em like him anymore”. Sincerely, Joe Hammel/Scovill GC
Cynthia, I only met your father one time and I immediately knew he was a kind and gentle man. I know he taught you the goodness to share with others, which you do so well. My deepest sympathies to you and your family.
