Dick was my husband Kevin's best man. This was taken the first time I met Dick when the guys went target shooting. We will miss him greatly. Please let us know when the memorial service will be held so we can say our farewells. Blessed be Dick, we love you, Kevin & Lisa Legler

Very sorry to hear of Dick's death. I remember him working on cars, especially Bobby's hot rod Nova. He influenced me to want to get my hands dirty more than I ever realized. Still love messing with all things mechanical.. Thanks Dick. RIP.

It's so sad to say goodbye to cousin Dick. Dad (Marvin Erlendson) always spoke highly of him, and he will be missed. My condolences to Caryn and Charles. Love to you all. Lisa Erlendson Scott
