Dunatchick -- In Loving Memory of Richard C. (Dickie) Dunatchik January 15, 1939 to May 29, 1998I remember how you watched over me as a child, keeping me out of harms way.I remember the times we explored our world, one brother with another, everyday a new adventure.I remember the many times we spent in our room listening to music and talking of life and how you taught me how to appreciate both.I remember when you taught me to tie my first tie and how to dress for my first date.I remember the time you lent me your new sports car for an important date, the great pride I felt because of your trust in me.I remember all the dinners we prepared and the wonderful food and wine we shared; How you taught me to appreciate the finer things in life.But most of all I remember you as a gentle man who always gave more to others than he ever expected to receive in return.The Lord took you too soon, but in my heart I know he took you to a better place. Remembering you on what would have been your 60th birthday. Love, Your Brother, Mark
