Ray/Janet,

Although Dick (also known as Richard and Rick) Carlson said that he wanted to attend the next reunion, he won't be able to do so. After a very long and incredibly brave battle against cancer, he passed away a few weeks ago on January 26.

He touched so many lives while he was here. He leaves behind his two sons, their wives, and five grandchildren, plus two stepdaughters and their husbands. He gained the stepdaughters when we married over 17 years ago in 1991. Both sons and both daughters were here with us when he took his last breath. Although he couldn't control the ultimate outcome, he was able to do things his way until the very end.

Regards, on his behalf, to the former classmates he wanted to catch up with at the reunion.
