This is truly a great loss; Dick was a wonderful man, humanitarian and a remarkable human being, we will miss his candor, laughter, love of the arts and the love he had for his beautiful wife Linda and the tinkle in his eyes when he spoke of his children and grandchildren. God gave you to us for 71 years and now the father has requested Dick to come home. Thank You Heavenly Father for giving us a great gift; being a friend and having a small part in Dicks life, You will be missed our friend. Love and Prayers to the Knirk Family, Bill & Brenda Pearlman
