Dick was an avid woodworker and spent many hours in his basement workshop designing and building various items. He would hand them over to Mary Lynn who would add her artistic touch. They created countless pieces for their children, grandchildren, and community that will be cherished for years to come. Dick was also a member of the local Ham radio club. He enjoyed talking to people all over the world under the call sign W8IYC.
