I am blessed to have Dick and Jackie as friends from Grand Lakes Presbyterian Church. As a former charter member and church office administrator, I had the privilege of working closely with Dick as our Facility Elder. Dick was a thoughtful, kind-hearted and natural leader, it was a joy to be working with him anytime, in every projects. We shared many wonderful stories of our children, grand children, travel experiences, politics, etc. and many wonderful memories of the life of our church. There is one thing about Dick that I will cherish forever was Dick's departure announcement. He always said to me "Sarah, don't sink it!" with a big smile before leaving the church.
Dick is departed from us but his legacy will remain forever in our heart and mind. I will miss him dearly.
My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.
