Mrs Betker and Roland,
I’m so sorry to hear this. When Dick worked at IPC, he always had a smile and liked to tease me about not working hard enough. He was a good man. My thoughts and prayers are with you all.

Dear Ruth, Roland and Jim, I am so sorry for your loss!! Uncle Richie was such a great man!! I will truly miss him. We had great times as I was in the young people going camping and playing volleyball. He was an encouraging man! There are so many things I could say of him. He will always be "uncle Richie" to me!!! I pray that the Lord will comfort you as you remember his memory. ALWAYS REMEMBER THAT HE'S NEVER REALLY GONE AS LONG AS YOU REMEMBER HIM!!!! Christina Nails

I worked with Dick for several years in the 70s. Always a great guy, so skilled and talented and never without a smile. A finer American than many natural born. My sincerest condolences to Ruth and the boys. Rest in Peace my old friend.
