Uncle Dick-
My heart broke when I heard the news, I have wonderful memories of visiting you and Aunt Nita on Holidays and weekends. You were my second set of parents. I loved to talk cars and riding mowers with you, but my favorite thing to do was make you laugh. You laughed so hard you would have to take off your glasses wipe your eyes. That is the image I will carry with me of you.
Great Uncle- Big Heart
Love Chuck Montgomery- Proud Nephew

Uncle Dick-
My heart broke when I heard the news, you have meant so much to me. I have nothing but great memories from my childhood visits to your house. You and Aunt Nita were my second parents, and I will never forget you.
I used to love to make you laugh, you would laugh so hard you would have to pull off your glasses and wipe your eyes. That is the image I will keep in my mind.
Big Heart- Great Uncle
Love Chuck Montgomery
