He will be remembered for his kindness, generosity, selfless service and endless dedication to family, friends, church and coworkers alike. Dick had a successful career, but first and foremost, he was a family man, always envisioning a better world for all of us and executing projects to fulfil his dreams. In retirement, Dick cared for his elderly parents and actualised his dream of building a home place, overlooking the Ohio River, cultivating land once forgotten. He traveled the world with his cherished wife and played with his adoring grandchildren. He lived a life full of love and purpose, setting a shining example for us to follow in his legacy. Dick had no regrets.

Ultimately, he served in many leadership roles. After a distinguished 40-year career, Dick retired as Executive Vice President of Financial Services in December 2017, where he left a lasting impact on all with whom he worked. Dick was active in the Louisville Ag Club, including as past president, Kentucky FFA, and the UK Alumni Association.
