My deepest sympathy to you on the passing of your beloved "Dick". I know he played a big part in my grandsons golf through the Dowagiac High School.
I am Paul and Dolly's friend!

I can't imagine anyone taking Dick's place. He was a champion for Michigan Lakes, mentored Michigan Youngsters, all while smiling and enjoying our beautiful state. An MSU grad and as fine a human being as there is...we will miss you terribly.

Dar, I can only begin to feel your pain and we are so sad in your great loss. Our prayers are with you, Scott, and Stacy and your awesome family. Coach is looking down upon his wonderful family and smiling knowing he left his personal mark on us all. I loved knowing him for over 35 years and will always have Dick close to my heart. Dick will be so sadly missed but not ever forgotten. God Bless you and Dick. Eternal Peace.

I am so sorry to hear of Dick's passing. When I was the building secretary at Justus Gage Elementary, Dick was one of our favorite sub teachers and school friends. His care and concern for children was obvious in the classroom and in his work with the weekend meal program that helped families in need. What a great guy!

To Darlene, Scott, and the family of Dick Morey:
I wanted convey my condolences in Dick's passing. As a fellow riparian I had opportunities to talk about lakes and lake issues at many annual conferences of ML&SA and to witness Dick's influence upon both old and new members. He will be sincerely missed.

So sorry to learn of the passing of a great water resource advocate in Michigan. Magician Lake and MLSA will miss your advocacy and leadership. Not only for water and its uses, but also for Dowagiac's youth involved with the Elk's golf program.

So very sorry for your families loss. I met Dick two years ago at the Boyne Mountain Conference and spoke a couple times on the phone regarding our lake association. Such a kind man and again so very sorry for your loss. Lori Penzenik ( Eagle Lake Improvement Association)
