Richard took me to dinner one night because Linda told me it was important. To them, it was important.....Richard asked me if he could marry my Linda!! I moved to NC in late 2007, but tried to get back to CA at least every 2 years. This past August, I spent 9 days in CA -- I just sat around the house and spent time with Richard and Gert in the garage. We had good times, and I'll not forget that visit. Richard treated my Linda like pure gold--whatever she wanted, he'd move Heaven and earth to get it for her. It will not be the same when I go to visit. Thank you, Richard, I love you. 

He taught me all about how to pick up girls.

In honor of my other older brother, Dickie Thompson, I'm the little brother  of Danny Lloyd . I've known  Dickie since I was 7 years old.  One of my fondest  memories  is of a trip to the desert  with Dickie and a friend  camping and riding motorcycles at night,  but unknown to us we were riding  on the Ocatilla Wells airport .  Then we saw some flashing lights and got stopped by a sheriff deputy....? Yep we all got tickets  and Dicki says don't you think we should get off the airport before we get ran over by a B-52 Bomber. God bless you brother  love Roy

This morning I woke from a dream of Dick and I riding the Imperial Dunes together all night, I'm worn out. Thanks for the ride.

Dick and I met at about the ages of twelve and were inseparable until I joined the Army. I was accepted into his family by both Dick and his parents.  Thank you Gert and Frank for allowing me to always feel welcome.
I have admired Dick from the beginning of our childhood relationship. I thought he was so smart and talented in so many different ways. Most of all I admired that he valued others, never putting himself above anyone, and generous to a fault. He cherished family and everyone in his heart was accepted at face value.  We remained  bonded throughout life events, marriages and families. We always were there for each other. 
Our memories together have filled my mind and heart for over 60 years. Thank you Dick, you  for will always be there.
