Dick & Yvonne, Sandy and I are so saddened to read that you have lost your son.  We would have been there for the service, but Sandy is in Montana and only coming home this week-end.  You both have our deepest sympathy and we can only hope that the many fond memories of the past 49 years will bring you through this very trying time.

Peace be with Rick and his family...
I had the pleasure of working with Rick at the food bank and he was such a kind and gentle soul. "I will think of you often...hope you are happy".

Our thoughts and prayers are with the Benzinger family in this time of loss. I got to know Rick over the last couple of years that he worked at the Fort Ground Grill.
He was always very kind and caring of everyone he came in contact with. We will miss him very much.

Dear Benzinger Family~

     I was so very sorry to hear about your loss.
     You have always been one of my favorite couples out of all my parents friends.  I have always looked forward to seeing you over the years.
     I remember that when I used to babysit Brian, Rick would sometimes come home for brief moments and I had such a crush on him!!!  We never said much, cuz he was always in-n-out, but boy did I have a crush!
     My sympathies go out to all of you during this time of loss.  Know that you are all in my heart and on my mind.
     May God carry you even closer over the rest of your years on this earth as He most certainly understands the pain of losing a Son.

Blessings and Peace,


Lisa Kostenick

Dick & family,
              I just learned the internet connections and came across the news. I am so sorry for your loss and I feel very sad that I haven't kept in touch. I think of everyone often. I now have an e-mail address. If you have an e-mail address may I please have it. I will try to keep in touch with all more often.      
                 Love Maggie  
               
              PS:  You will be in my prayers.
