I remember at a young age looking forward to family trips to see the Collinsville gang and especially my cousin Dick.  His interest and knowledge in old cars was a great help to me.  In fact, on several occasions in later years he responded to my urgent requests and made the long trip to Wethersfield to bail me out of what seemed to me at the time to be a major problem with my ancient vehicles. These visits always expanded to long enjoyable conversations with Dick and my parents.

I also clearly remember the day Dick married a very nervous and wonderful girl.  Thank you Mary for making his life full and rewarding.  

Nancy and I extend our heartfelt  condolences to you and your family.

      With Love,

             Jim
