DR was not only a coworker, he was a good friend.  A true southern gentleman, who always treated people with respect.  We would share "where's the best place to fish for crappie", good books, family, and so much more.  I will truly miss this sweet man, he was one of the good ones.

I’m so sorry for the loss of DR. He was one of my favorite people I ever worked with… He will be missed by so many people. Sending hugs and prayers for his wonderful family.
