He will be greatly missed by all. Dick led an extraordinary life. From Chicago in the summer of ’68, to Woodstock to the aftermath of 9/11 and beyond, he seemed to sense the historical importance of events and needed to take part. On his journey he befriended and touched many people. To his family, he was the glue that held us all together. To his friends and many acquaintances, he was an intelligent, engaging person who disarmed you with his knowledge and humor. He loved life, and shared that love with everyone he knew.
