Condolence: I knew Dick from Colin's Coffee Shop where Dick was King! He made you feel welcomed and talked to everyone. He made you feel special and always had a story or joke. I looked forward to talking sports with him and especially high school sports. He will be missed by many. My prayers to you and your family.

Condolence: To the Kovalchik family:
My sincere condolences! Dick was a good friend that I first met when I was 12 years old and went to Razors Edge to see him for 35+ years! Always a good laugh when I saw him and would stop in even when I didn’t need a cut, just to cheer my day up! Will miss his morning Facebook messenger “Good Mornings!” RIP Big Guy!!!!

Condolence: My deepest sympathy, to the family. Dick was such a kind man, I got to know him when I started taking my then 4 yr old son Peter to Razor’s Edge. Peter would always get so excited to see Dick that he would run up to him and leap into his arms to receive a big welcome back hug. I so very sorry to hear of his passing.
