Condolence: Our deepest sympathy to Gail and family. Though it has been years since we have seen each other, our memories of times spent together especially around dinner tables are wonderful. We also often share the story of DIck's llove for ice cream sundaes. You are in our thoughts and prayers. Val and Roy

Condolence: Meredith My condolences to you and your entire family on the loss of your dad. I hope you'll always carry the happiest of memories with you and share them with your children. May God comfort you all.

Condolence: Deepest condolences to Gail and family. Dick had a deep commitment not only to the law but to his fellow man. I articled with Dick's then firm when Rowan and Martin's Laugh In show was the comedy of the time. He would end the day with goodnight Rick and I would respond GOOD NIGHT DICK!!! Then laughter. Dick had a great laugh! He will be greatly missed by all who knew him.

Condolence: A 'forever' friend, of remarkable insight, humour and clarity. We went to the same schools, then UBC, then lived in Northern B.C. We canoed the Bowron Lakes Park and spent time at Bednesti Lake curing the world's ills around campfires. 'Dickie, Richard, Thomas, Albert, Pantywaist' will be truly missed.

Condolence: I was Dick's last articled student, at Wilson, King & Co. when he was appointed to the County Court bench. He was an inspiration, not only for his considerable skills but, and by far more, because of his attitude...his ethics and morality, combined with a great sense of humour. We gradually lost touch after his appointment to the Bench, other than on those occasions where I appeared before him as counsel. But I never lost and will never lose the memories I have of him while I was a student and for several years thereafter. I learned a lot from Dick in the brief time we worked together.

Condolence: Dear Gail, I was so shocked to return from holidays and read about Dick's sudden death. Both of you added such grace and goodness to West Vancouver United Church during my ministry there and I will be holding you in prayer in the time to come. With love from Laura and the kids... Ross.

Condolence: We had such a great time with you guys we just cant believe Dick is gone. You are in our thoughts and prayers. We will phone and see how you are doing in a few weeks.So sorry we can't make the funeral Take care be strong talk to you soon Love always

Condolence: Dear Gail and family members: Dick was not only an excellent judge and lawyer, he was a terrific person. His genuine decency, sense of humour and caring mean that his memory will be warm and lasting...particularly will that be so by his classmates in the class of '64 UBC Law. Gail, we know how much your love and support meant to him. Best wishes.

Condolence: Dear Gail, thanks for letting us know about Dick. :( We can't make it down for the service, but may be in Vancouver in a few weeks. Will be in touch to see if you feel up for a visit at that time. Laura and Doug

Condolence: Dear Gail & family, so saddened to hear of Dick's passing. He was far to young and I know he will be greatly missed. Thinking of you. Pauline

Condolence: Gail, Oliver, Meredith, Scott, and families I am so very sorry to hear of Dick's passing. Strantely, it was 17 years ago last week that he married Cliff and I. Any contributing failing on his part, in that we ultimately divorced, was remedied of course, by your introduction of him to Ethel! Gail, you and Dick were tremendous friends to us in those years; the love and affection you had for each other was inspirational. I'm honoured to have known you both. BC has lost one of the best judges we ever had. I trust his legacy will continue, carried forward by his kids and grandchildren, and by lawyers and judges who had the pleasure of working with him.

Condolence: To Gail, Oliver and all of the family, We are so sad to hear of the passing of Dick and our thoughts and prayers go out to all of you at this very difficult time. We really enjoyed every visit with Dick. He was a very special and interesting man, but of course you all know that. He will be remembered in our hearts. We are so sorry that we cannot be with you right now.
