Holly Bernier wrote a sympathy message

“I met Dick in my teen years,, like everyone else who crossed his path quickly grew to love him…. He always had a natural way with humor—making me laugh without even trying.. From early on, he treated me like one of his own daughters, and that’s something I’ll forever be grateful for. I’ll cherish those memories for a lifetime.”
