I have very fond memories of Dick and Rocky when I was out on my chuck it walks with my mom and dad. We would stop by and my mom would visit with Dick while Rocky and I would eat treats. He was such a really nice guy. He always had a smile on his face and I know that everyone, esp Rocky will miss him! Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family Rocky. Love and Licks… Wrigley Reed ( and my mom and dad too!)
Shortly after The Boys Company was created I remember Dick taking me with him on Anhydrous Run to Bluff City in a cab over Emeryville IH Truck. I really enjoyed him taking me along, and it seem like only yesterday. I always enjoyed visiting with Dick and hearing about his hunting excursions with his Brittany’s…. Thanks for the memories Dick!
