  1. For Spring-Way Baptist Church you have lost a pastor and I have lost my cousin. I have many wonderful memories over the years with Dick
    I especially enjoyed those times at your church with his love for the scripturs and you his congregations. He even had me bring the message a few times when I was visiting. He is with the Lord now and I am anxious to join him.

  2. To the family,
    I’m sorry for your loss of your father,grandfather, our town will never be the same. Having grown up with you I know He was well loved in our town.From my family to yours our dearest sympathy.

    My sincere condolences to you & your families.
