Eric :
It was my pleasure to do this and I felt an obligation to since I had become so busy I didn't get to see him during the period when he could still take visits. Dick was always supportive and helpful to me and like all who knew him, understand the size of our loss.
He was the epitome of solidarity, always honoring his obligations, with a big sense of responsibility with no obvious sense of entitlement to anyone's thanks. Dick was always seemingly asking himself "what have I done for you lately? "...
We've lost the irreplaceable.
I took a collection of (so-so) pictures with my phone which I will add to the smugmug site and post a notice. I wish I had taken my camera. Rather than offending, I would have fit right in with his children who had their cameras clicking away! But you will at least get the feeling that it was a celebration of a life.
