We will miss you Dick - your exuberance for life and fun loving nature. How many wonderful vegetables you brought us from your overflowing and beautiful garden. Your elaborate winter village and train made the holidays even more special. You were one of a kind! We know you are somewhere running the bases and hitting a home run. All our love.

Dick... It is very hard to say good-bye to you. The girls and I loved you very much. Thank you for all your generosity. The girls and I loved spending weekends with you and Nana. My morning coffee runs to get you your decaf mocha with whip, hanging out watching the As games, or going to In and Out with you and Nana. We will miss you always. We love you Dick. Stacey, Addie, and Alexey
