He worked various jobs and spent a lot of his life being self-employed. Dick will be remembered as a jack of all trades. He has resided for the past 10 years in St. Ansgar. Dick died doing one of his passions, riding his Harley-Davidson motorcycle. He was always playing practical jokes and pranking his boys and friends.
