He graduated from Berlin High School with the class of 1952. Dick worked as a pipefitter for Brown Company - James River Corportation, retiring in 1993. He was predeceased by his wife Nancy after 50 years of marriage. He leaves two sisters Shirley Foss and her husband Richard from Connecticut and Susan Kleva and husband Steve from Delaware, as well as several nieces and nephews. Dick and Nancy spent their busy lives traveling the country, vacationing in the tropics, trying their luck in Las Vegas, playing cards and dancing with their many friends. His lifetime passion was hunting and fishing and he spent as much time as possible in the woods or on the water.
