Dick was a long time family friend to me and my boy's Abe and Eli, my dad Darrell and my brother Ken and his son Nathan. We all always bought, sold and traded stuff like tools, gun related junk, coins, fishing gear and all kinds of old guy stuff with Dick.and spent many a hour visiting.  I always enjoyed eating with him at the cafe' up in San Miguel that Barbara and her mom ran. called DANNY's Cafe.  Dick had a great love of getting some tool or gadget that he had never scene before....and....researching it to find it's use, name and maker. His love of the antique tool business wasn't so much the tools but mostly in the "Research HUNT" to find the facts relating to a new "find". The "knowledge hunt" was his greatest love in his work/hobby.  He also loved traveling around to all the outdoor swap meets and set up to sell. He has a ton of friends out there in California.  
     He was a manly guy,  and a patriotic man, was a US Army officer, and a journeyman welder tradesman.  He was Catholic.  Had kids and nieces and nephews.  Everyone knows who Dick was and he was respected and was kind of an institution "The Tool Guy".  He had a sometimes gruff exterior but always had a kind heart, and  would always help out a downward soul when the need arose. I will all miss him a lot.  Have know him 35 years.  David Mann
