    Dag gum it Dick, I'm going to miss you. Not my Dad, (did things exactly like my Dad) but you were my Pal & Buddy tied up in one. I'm so grateful I got to know you for the last few years. We always had a project, we'd ride together in the white van, tease each other............laugh, we didn't lack telling each other stories and somehow everything we did, turned out to be an adventure. ( like Every time I/we went to the mountains, we always had a campfire story to tell when we got home. LOL )
    To Cassie and the Siddoway family, Dick came into my life when I really needed a mentor to help me come out of a dark place so that I could feel human again. He's the man. And I want to think that I was the Pal (of many) Dick needed to have at the time also. Dick, Thank you for your therapy, kindness, hospitality, deer & elk roast dinners and trusting me to try your new recipes. Dick will always hold a big place in my heart and how to live life to the fullness.

    I first met Dick when he was helping my mom fix her fridge. He instantly made a great impression on me. Super kind, funny, and honest. When my husband Justin & I needed help with different appliances, we always called Dick. When he came by, he always made me laugh.
    Over the years, we talked about our families, & when he found out that Justin graduated from Olympus High the same year as his son Shane, he started to treat us like family. Dick always went the extra mile. When we needed to buy a new washer, he helped us to research a good used one, & lent us his hand truck.
    On this last repair, he had Justin drive back to his house so that together they could unload our dryer. On the way, Dick told Justin that anytime we wanted to use the family cabin we could see if it was available, and if it was, we could use it.
    We will miss Dick so much. He was much more than a repair man to our family. He was someone who would make us laugh, ate ice cream with us in our kitchen, and helped us to live our best live.
    We send all or our love to Dick's family. He will be missed more than I can say.

    We just learned of Dick's passing. We send our heartfelt condolences. What a wonderful person he was. He kept our refrigerator and washing machine running for several years. We are so sorry to learn of his passing and wish his wife and family our sympathy. What a treasure Dick was to so many people and we are so happy to have been among his patrons and friends. He was an amazing and selfless person who put everyone's needs first. We love you Dick-rest in peace!

    I just learned of Dick's passing and it feels like the end of an era. They don't make them like Dick anymore! Kind, hard working, honest, incredibly knowledgeable. I loved how he could tell me the genealogy of every appliance in my house, but I especially loved how he treated me like a favorite niece. He helped me and my family so many times over the years, just because he could. I send my sincere sympathy to his family as they mourn his passing. Best, Sarah and Jake Pollard
