My deepest and heartfelt condolences to Mrs. Keele and family in the loss of Dick. He loved each of you so very much and wow – not only did his face and eyes light up but that smile was infectious when he talked about each one of you – it was priceless. We loved talking about family.
I worked with Dick @ Ryder + my husband had the pleasure to work with him @ Midwest Tile. Dick also prepared my taxes for many years.
You are each in my thoughts and my Prayers as you go thru this journey together. May God hold you close and keep those ‘smiles and wonderful memories’ near.
Blessings –
Cheryl Voirol-Ort
