Dick Koller was such a joy! I am so sorry to hear of his passing. He loved his family and talked of them often when we worked together at Roller. He was truly an amazing guy with wonderful stories, a sharp wit, and a his own kind of charm.
I am so sadden by the passing of my Uncle Dick. I love him with all my heart and I am so deeply sorry that I did not see this in time to be at the service today. Uncle Dick had one of the most ethical characters I know. Such a very pleasant person so kind I have never been associated with anyone like him in my life. I love him and will miss him.
Tracie/Trina I am so sad for you but we will all get to see him again one day.
Love and prayers of Peace for you all.
Praying for all of you. Love you all...
So sorry for your loss,Dick was a good friend and boss,one of a kind man
Tracie - I am so sorry to hear about your sweet Daddy passing away. I know the hurt you're feeling but also know the joy of knowing he's no longer uncomfortable or in pain.
Poppy was one of the best men I knew! He and my daddy were so much alike...always made me feel like he was so glad to see me and cared so much about what was going on in our family. We had many great laughs with him & Joyce and we will never forget them.
Prayers for you my sweet friend and your family!
Dick,
Was a kind and gentle person, easy to talk too, he was definitely asset to this world and the people around him. I enjoyed working with him on weekends at Roller- Owens. He will be missed!
To Dick's Family,
He was such a joy to be around and I loved his laugh. My mom considered Dick one of her dearest friends having worked with him at Roller Owens and him coming to events at the Shrine Temple. I could watch Dick and Joyce dance all night he could really cut a rug. I hope the family knows Dick was special to a lot of people and he will never be forgotten. I will keep you all in my thoughts and prayers,
