Larry Furrer wrote a sympathy message

“Dick Taft was a very special friend to me. We met as fraternity brothers our sophomore year at Dartmouth College and became lifelong friends. For three years we played together on the fraternity basketball and volleyball teams. He was an excellent athlete. Dick was also one of the smartest and most creative people I have ever known. My thoughts and prayers go out to his wife Shelley as well as all the rest of his family. Larry Furrer”
