Uncle Dickie…

…was one of a kind.
A big heart and a sense of humor to match.
He was my mother’s younger brother and he was a hellion.
I’m afraid he drove my Grandmother crazy with his antics.
If I started to describe any of them, I wouldn’t know where to stop. So instead, I’ll share this photo of my uncle when he was a boy. My Mom was an artist so perhaps she drew the figure. This shows Dick’s spirit quite clearly:

Unfortunately, Dickie died the day before Hurricane Katrina hit New Orleans. We all miss him.
It makes perfect sense that as one force of nature leaves another arrives!
