Dick was born and raised on the family farm in Nut Mountain Saskatchewan. He moved to Cranbrook and worked for Kennelly Contracting for many years. Dick married his sweet- heart Fran, together with six kids and some Tupperware they made a beautiful family.
Dick and Fran loved to camp, square dance and travel. In re- tirement they spent winters in Yuma, Arizona.

Forever holding his wife's hand.
