Dick was born on July 21, 1942, the son of Donald and Betty (Vick) Fausnaugh in Elma, IA. He attended and graduated from Immaculate Conception High School. After graduating, Dick furthered his education at a barber school in Cedar Rapids. He returned to Elma and worked as a barber in Charles City, IA for a number of years.

The couple later made their home in St. Ansgar where they purchased and ran Cedar Lanes for several years, before they purchased bowling alleys Anamosa, Carroll, Mason City and Pocahontas. They also owned The Yogurt Shop in Mason City until Dick began working for Direction Research up to his retirement in 2009.
