My wonderful brother and friend. I love you with all my heart, always have and always will. I have been thinking about all the things we did as kids and the fun we had. Our life was wonderful and filled with love. The great times at the lake and fun holidays. Tell everyone hello. We will all be together as God calls.

My Uncle Dick was one of the kindest individuals I have ever known. His smile and laughter filled a room.. I will always remember the backyard football games and the boating fun over the years. Judy, we love you and will always be here for you.
