A resident of Stoneham, Dick was a veteran of the U.S. Coast Guard, and returned as a dedicated civilian employee until his retirement after 33 years of service. Dick cherished the time he spent gathering his family together and having fun with them on Pine River Pond. He was truly happiest being on the water; especially when "Papa's Beach" was overflowing with extended family and dear friends.
