“Bonnie & Family, I was shocked and saddened to hear of Dick's passing. We had just talked to each other a day or two before his death. I can tell you how proud he was of all of you. Although I have not met Dick's & Bonnie's children, I know them all well through my talks with Dick. I will miss Dick and will not forget his friendship and advice when I needed guidance. Dick loved you all very much. My sincere condolences to all of you. Dan Hefner”

Christina Collins wrote a sympathy message

“Bonnie, I always enjoyed Dick's sense of humor and outgoing nature. I looked forward to running into him. You two always looked so happy together and I enjoyed seeing that, too. I'm sad to hear that Dick has gone. I'm glad you had the years you had and have many warm memories. Bob, you and Dick were quite a pair. I often sensed a bit of sibling rivalry, but I always saw a lot of love, too. I'm grateful for my time spent with you both. Thinking of you and your families.”

John Mctigue wrote a sympathy message

“Bonnie and family, In the fall of 1995 a new nervous General agent showed up in Chicago. Dick walked into my office with a sly smile and a slightly inappropriate comment. All I could do was laugh. We danced that same dance for 20 years and Dick was always there with a word of encouragement and support. His smile made every room lighter and brighter. He was a real Irish Blessing. John and Vanessa McTigue family”

What a wonderful man full of kindness, humor, dedication to family, friends, and community. My mind races back to several Dick Brunton episodes that puts a smile on my face. Hope to share some stories on Oct 16. God Bless You All-----Dex & Lynne Means”
