Dick was a very special individual. Never hesitated to give help whenever required. Will be sorely missed at 1600 Taylor. Any time I had questions with respect to our building he always had the time for an explanation. - Posted by: Bonnie Williams (Friend) on: Dec 21, 2024

Linda and family, my condolences to you and your families. I grew up across the street, so Linda and I often played together. I remember Dick and Doug painting their bikes to make them look awesome. Odd thing to remember I know. Life is precious and full of wonderful things. - Posted by: Candace Hamulka (Riy) (Family friend ) on: Dec 21, 2024
