He also owned his own company designing and producing synthesizers in their infancy. He served an LDS mission to the Central Atlantic States. Together, he and Lee served a mission at the Family History Center.

Dick also served in the Army Reserves. He loved playing the guitar, motorcycling in his younger days, photography, and decorating the house for Christmas. He would often have the Christmas decorations up by early October until he decided it was easier to keep them up year-round.

He was an excellent craftsman and loved wood working. The family spent many vacations in his homemade camper. He especially loved sharing his thoughts and ideas with anyone willing to listen.

Recently, he loved talking about the Hoover Dam, and we would often say, “Oh Dad, not another dam story”. Dick is survived by his wife Lee, daughters; Heidi Parker and Wendy Child (Todd), 5 grandchildren, and 2 great grandchildren. He was preceded in death by his parents and sister, Diane.
