My condolences to the family. I had the pleasure of having Richard call on me at Palmetto Rural Telephone in Walterboro, SC for many years. He was always professional and I thought of him as my friend.

Vickie and Sherry, words cannot express our sorrow hearing Dickie has passed. He was always upbeat every time we had the pleasure of seeing him, talking college football, racing or whatever came to mind. He was our hero after all he had to endure with his blindness as he was an inspiration to all. He would make mention to us of things going on in Cheers that we swore he had eyes in the back of his head. RIP Dickie .... Mary & Billy
