My faithful big brother always let me share in the fun. From Triump 600 rides across the Mississippi River to Air shows, to stock car races, Dick always knew how to have a good time. A good man who love to eat and have good conversation at days end with his friends, family and loving wife Sue. Thank you my brother for being such a good man.
You are all in my prayers. Love y'all.
I loved my Uncle Dick. Great memories.
I am so sorry for your loss
So sorry to hear. Prayers to the family.
