Christopher Green wrote a sympathy message

“I loved working for Dick at DFI in Madison. He was so proud to serve as the department's first Secretary. He always tried to do the right thing for the state of Wisconsin. He was also so proud of his family! Those that worked for him will always remember those days after he went on his famous walks because he'd come into the office excited and full of new ideas and innovations!”
