I shared a May 5th birthday with my Uncle Dick and some of my earliest childhood memories are of time spent at his home on Henderson Street. I will never forget his smile which managed to be both shy and mischievous. He will be fondly remembered for his good humor. My condolences to family.

I grew up in Bloomington In., and lived across the street from Richard. His son Todd was my childhood best friend growing up. I have a lot of great memories spent at their house. Richard was a great guy to me, and I am saddened by his passing. RIP Richard (Dick) Cohee. My deepest condolences, thoughts and prayers go out to Todd and all of Richard's family in this difficult time.

But what he really got for his birthday was a duck! He loved the duck more than his boat! Lol

Richard was in his final stages of forgetfulness. So we thought we would tell him we bought him a boat for his birthday. He was so excited. A good short memory!!
