Dorothy, just seeing this. I am so sorry . It has been long time since I've seen you but I know you are going to miss him and so will the family. Prayers
Mackie and Freda, I am so sorry to hear about your brother Ray, I am praying for family.
Robin Stacy and family sorry for your loss
I have many memories of Dicky. We lived down the road from them in Crawfordsville. Teresa and I hung out all of the time.
I remember him singing and his love of music. I could relate to that because I have that same passion for singing and music.
One memory of me that Dicky never ever forgot was one that he thought was absolutely hilarious. He and Dorthy took us to see the movie Popeye at the theater. From then on he referred to me as Olive Oil. You see I was so skinny and anytime he saw me, even years and years later that’s what he called me.
He was a great man and I know he will be missed by many. Lifting all of his loved ones up to our Sweet Jesus. I’ll see you on the other side Dicky.
Love Olive Oil
Mackie and Freda, I did not know your brother, but I've heard about him. I am sad for you to no longer be able to be with him. When I saw his obituary, I knew he was your brother. I just want you to know I'm thinking about you and miss seeing you now and then.
So sorry Dorothy. I know you and your sweet family will miss him. Thinking about you and praying for you all.
