I became acquainted with Dick during my days of researching Fred Kimble. He was a Kimble fan and I provided him with pictures of my Kimble paintings and Kimble score card and he used them on the Trapshooter's Hall of Fame web site. I believe I recall Dick's wife buying one of my Kimble books as a Christmas gift for him. He was a wonderful gentleman and I really enjoyed our brief friendship. But it was cut short with Dick's untimely death. His book, "The Road to Yesterday," is a must read for anyone interested in the history of trap shooting.
