Dick was a good friend and classmate at USNA and Pensacola. He remains alive in our memories and will be remembered on our USNA 1965 Class Memorial dedicated at Leahy Hall during our 40th reunion in November 2005.

I will always remember Dick and his "partner"/room-mate, Mike Grammar, as the guys responsible for my graduating from the Naval Academy, Annapolis. I was in the dorm room next to him during my plebe year. I would have given up without the firm, yet gentle, support of Dick and Mike. They were both Marines, even back then ... Eagle, Globe, and Anchor on the wall, everything green ... ooo-ra! Dick coaxed me through countless crises and losses of confidence. We were all young, but he had the wisdom of the ages. Thank you, Dick; I'll never forget you. I'll visit you again at the Wall.

From a Naval Academy company-mate and friend,
