    When I remember Dick, I think of the words kind, sweet & always the greeting “Well Hello Dear” with that charming Southern Gentleman accent. I will miss him. So.. until we meet again my friend, R.I.P..

    What fun memories we have of times spent with Dickie and Bobbi....Seafood Festival, Southern Governor's Conf. (remember the tennis match?), Economic Summit in Wmsburg, etc. etc. etc. We have missed you over the years and regret that distance separated us. Bless you, Bobbi and your family. Dick was a good man and a good friend!

    Love, Jim and Tuckie Paxton (Richmond)
