I have always held the memories of playing hockey in Prescott as some of my most impactful childhood experiences. This is in large part due to having Dick behind the bench. Like many men of that time period, he selflessly devoted his time share his passion for hockey with his sons many other fortunate boys and young men. Thanks so much Dick, they were great times.
