My family remembers Dick for many kindnesses.  My mother (Eva Herzfeld) remembers him as a brilliant and warm-hearted colleague and friend at Mattatuck.  My deceased father (Wolfgang Herzfeld) also enjoyed visits with Dick and Bob, first in Connecticut and then in Florida.  My husband (Robert Griffin) and I appreciated the grace with which Dick conducted our interfaith and ecumenical wedding ceremony at my parents’ home in Connecticut.  It was therefore a particular joy to be able to join in celebrating Dick and Bob's long sought wedding decades later.  And I remember that Dick’s activism even included interviewing me about my book just as soon as it was published.

We mourn his passing while remembering him with gratitude.


Dick Nolan was my second father, my father in Christ.  He was a teacher, a mentor and a friend.  He help me to grow from a young boy to a young man.  His work at St. Paul's in Bantam was years ahead of society.  Bob and Dick exemplified lover in Christ and each other.  He will be missed.  God Bless, be thou at Peace.
