Tim McKenna wrote a sympathy message

“Dick is one person you never thought would pass. Eternally youthful, always a joy to be with, so humorous, so talented and willing to share his knowledge. His photos showed that he cared deeply about this city and its people. When Aruba was in the news, I’d remind him that he once invaded that beach as a young Dutch marine, calling him a warrior of the Battle of Aruba. He’d reply that the only danger he faced was tripping over empty rum bottles. RIP Dick. Never forgotten.”
