Mentor, Client, Judge, Competitior but most importantly one of my best friends in the breed. He fought the courageous fight, always with his wife and best friend Jean at his side. I learned much from him, we looked at many things the same way and when we didn't our friendship allowed to discuss with eachother with respect. I will miss him greatly and the German Shepherd Breed has lost one it's truest and greatest supporters. Dick was truly for the Breed, first and foremost.
