Dick was such a hardworking and loving individual. He was always a huge help for my mother Mary Hull in all things outside. Without his dedication to help my mother my job would of been a lot tougher. Thank you for sharing such a wonderful man.
Dick was the happiest and friendliest gentleman on our Rolling Acres staff. He made everyone feel important and appreciated. Without Dick our outdoor learning area and frog pond would have never survived. He attended to every detail and treated our school like his own home. Hugs to you all and thanks for sharing Dick with us. Fondly, Nancy Cook
