My regards to Dick’s family. Dick was one of my special milling friends. His knowledge and expertise was invaluable as I made decisions. I looked forward to visiting with Dick about just about anything.

We are so sorry to hear about Dick. Rick & I have such happy memories of spending time with Dick at milling conventions. Several enjoyable dinners with Dick & Marilyn. Dick was one in a million & will be missed. Our condolences to Marilyn & family and Tom and Barbara.

Trent and family, I’m so sorry to hear about your loss! Thoughts and prayers are with you all!
So sorry for your loss. Dick was such a great supporter of IAOM. He will be missed by so many in the milling industry around the country.
To the Zimmerman family, Dick was more than a work associate, he was my friend. Dick invited me to join with him at men’s league and had the pleasure of seeing him weekly for a couple years. All of our prayers for your loss.
I was saddened to hear in recent years of Dick’s struggles and know all too well a similar story with my mother. Know that, like with others I’m sure, Dick was always patient and kind to help me understand any of his knowledge that might be helpful. His service to the common good of our industry and us as individuals will be sorely missed. Prayers for the Zimmerman family.
I remember with a smile my interactions with Dick while he was in the milling/allied trades. I wish you peace as you grieve this loss.
To the Zimmerman Family, my sincere condolences. I new Dick though the IAOM as a friend and as a customer. He was always very kind and helpful in friendly discussion and knowledgeable in solving problems. He is very much missed. Sincerely; Bob Ruckman
