Was really saddened to heart of Dick's passing. I first met him back in 1966 when I was playing mandolin in a bluegrass band in the Storrs, CT, area, the Snake Hill Boys. Bob Peelstrom, who played rhythm guitar & bass for the band, recruited Dick, who was then still in high school, to play lead guitar. We all stayed together for about a year. Then Dick went off to bigger & better things. Our paths didn't cross again until the 1970s, when he used to come to Bloomington, IN (where I was then living), as a sideman for Dave Bromberg. I remember him as immensely talented & as a man with a very sweet dispostion. Although I haven't seen him in years, I miss him, knowing now that he's gone.
