I was sorry to hear of Dick's passing. I am Aunt Ethel's granddaughter. I remember as a child staying at Aunt Rose's and Uncle Stanton's house and going to the lake for a few days. As an adult, when Dick and Barb would come to visit in Muncie, we had a grand time. He had interviewed my Grandmother Melton, his Aunt Ethel and we all have the CDs that he made for us, such a kind, thoughtful, creative man. When Grandmother passed away, I have the painting that he painted for her in 1985. It is a winter scene with mountains, snow, pine trees, and barren birch trees. I wish all of you comfort and peace during this time. My life was enriched ten fold by knowing Dick and Barb. Lovingly, Patti J. West 1st Cousin, I think!
