Through the years I have been deeply influenced by my Uncle Dick. I have extremely fond memories of his quips and fun way of looking at life. My Uncle Dick's Spirit lives on through us all!

I just wanted to drop by because I couldnt make it to the funeral.  I didnt know Dick during his prime but looking throuhg these pictures showed what an infectious personality he had!! So many beautiful memories of your family Lynn, I am so sorry for your loss.

Mike, Jennifer and Hunter:
We were so sorry to hear of the loss of your Dad/Grandpa.  We are sending you hugs and prayers that you will have peace and joy in your memories of him.

I am so sorry for your loss.  I worked with Dick for many years at MNI and he was always a pleasure to work with. He had a wonderful sense of humor and was pleasant to all who knew him.  My deepest sympathies to your you and your family.

I worked with Dick at MNI for 8 years and always found him to be a genuinely pleasant man with a wonderfully sarcastic and infectious sense of humor. I am saddened by his passing. Please accept my deepest sympathy for your loss. I wish you peace.

Such beautiful pictures...such wonderful memories.  You were blessed, and are in our thoughts and prayers.

We're praying that your family will be surrounded by God's comforting love and filled with the peace that only He can give.  With Dick not with us any longer, there is a space in our physical lives that won't be filled.  Spiritually, Dick will always be a part of our lives.  Keep strong.

Will always remember Mr. Beran's infectious smile, his quick wit, dry humor and abundant sweetness. To Mike, Suzanne, Mrs. Beran and extended Beran family - am sending all my love and prayers. We will remember him always.

Mike & Family - I am so sorry to hear about your Dad's passing. You have my deepest sympathy. May your faith give you the strength to get through this very difficult time. My thoughts and prayers will be with all of you.

Hey Mike ... dude, I'm so sorry for your loss, but you know I'm praying for comfort and strength in time. - Doc and the Wheeler tribe

Pepper and family, 
I so enjoyed coming to Glenview while going to ISU. I remember sitting at your kitchen table drinking coffee with you and Dick and watching him with your brilliant dog (can't remember her name!) His humor and sweet nature made our visits so wonderful!! Your family always made me feel so at home! I am so very sorry that you had to lose him so abruptly. You are all in my heart. Love, Liz and family

My thoughts and prayers go out to you and your family.
Sincerely, 
Kim Stanton Hartigan

Mike & family, I'm so very sorry for your loss. He was a wonderful person & I cared very much for him. My thoughts & prayers are with you & your family.

Mike & family,  I am so very sorry for your loss. I loved Dick. He was a great person & will be missed by all who knew him. Your family is in my thoughts & prayers. Mike, your dad was an amazing man. It hurts me deeply that he is gone but he is in a better place.

Lynn, I am so sorry to hear the news about Dick.  My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.  I love you.

I look up to folks like Dick (aka Mr. Beran) for living a life filled with success, love, and beautiful experiences. He raised a great family, worked hard at a job he appeared to love and was very good at, and left behind many, many friends and family to honor his memory and all that his life meant. God bless all of you for your loss. In this difficult time try and remember why it's so hard to see him go. He was nothing but kind and fun loving to me in the 34 years I knew him. One of the greatest "friend's Dads" a kid could hope to grow up with

Pepper and family,
I have so many wonderful memories of you and Dick.  I am so sorry he was lost to you so soon. My thoughts and prayers are with you.

Mrs. Beran and Suzanne, we have never met but Mike talked about both of you and his father often. You all sound like a wonderful family. I am very sorry for your loss.

Pepper, I am so sorry about Dick but I know he is in such a better place. When I talked to you on Thursday, I did not think I would hear this news this quickly. Please know that you and your family are in my prayers and thoughts. If there is anything I can do down here in Atlanta, let me know. Love you SJI Sister

We are so very sorry for your loss.  Our thoughts and prayers are with you all.
With love and heartfelt condolences, The Zeller Family

I know time is the only thing that can help heal.  Thank you for the continued prayers and support.  We loved our Dad so much.  He was also a sweet, sweet grandfather that will never see his grandchildren graduate, get married, and have kids of their own.  It makes us all so sad, but in our hearts we know he is no longer suffering and it would have been selfish on our part to force his body to stay.  Good Bless.

Our thoughts and prayers are with you Mrs. Beran, Suzanne and Michael.  Your dad was always so witty and kind to us as children.  We are very sorry for your loss.
