Dear Family,
I am so very sorry for your loss. Although it has been many years since I have seen most of you, I will always have fond memories of all the time I spent in your home when Nancy and I were in school together. We are never ready to lose someone we love so much, but I hope you find comfort in knowing that the love and prayers of others are with you through this time. Just as my dad's brick was outside your door, you have all been in my heart in these past days.
Sincerely,
Julia M. Morgan

Mr. Dick was my bus driver the entire time I was in school. I graduated in 1988 and have thought of him often since that time. He was my favorite person in the entire school system. I sat behind him while I was in elementary and he taught me the alphabet in sign language. He was such an awesome guy. So much so that I live in Ohio and I still heard of his death. He will be greatly missed. God bless you Mr. Dick. Thank you for being kind to a kid that REALLY needed kindness at that time. We all loved you.

I am so sorry for your family's loss. Although I had only met Mr. Dick while at his home last winter with Paul, he seemed to be a very nice and genuine man. I am sure he will greatly be missed. Your family will remain in my prayers.
