Aunt Val & kids,
I was so saddened to hear about Uncle Dick. I remember visiting when I was a kid and he was such great fun and good with us kids. I know words can't ease the pain of loss, but always remember how loved he was.
Our love always,

Sandi and Mike Papineau

Dear cousins and Aunt Val, my heart is filled with sorrow today learning of the passing of my favorite uncle. Always there, the pillar of his family, I will miss him so. With love and prayers.

I always appreciated Dick during the years we were at NRC. We talked about our previous SCS days among many other things. Great fellow.

Want to extend my sympathy to Val and the Kennedy family. The service was very comforting and personal - such a tribute by having family members take part. The word "inspiration" was very appropriate speaking of Val and Dick- two classy people.

Dear Tim and Joan,

I always thought your Dad was so dapper. I used to go to the soil conservation office with my dad and He always spoke to me in such a friendly manner. I admired him so. I hope to see you at our "63" class reunion next summer.

With you in prayer,
Ben
