Condolences & Memories (14 entries)

  • We are very sorry for the loss of Dick. Our hearts go out to Glenn & Cindy and their families. Dick had great humor right up till the end. At Kim & Glenn's recent wedding there wasn't a dry eye in the house after Kim & Glenn speech. Later I asked Dick what he thought, to which he replied "too bad the wedding party was full of crybabies!" He was referring to us - the groomsmen. We both had a great laugh. - Posted by: Jason & Tracy Stalker (Friend of Family) on: Apr 12, 2013
