Our deepest sympathies to the whole Caplan Family. Dick was a wonderful man, Though I knew him for only 6 years, I enjoyed having him as a friend and as a bowling teammate. Those who knew Dick were blessed to be around a man with such character and class. He will truly be missed, especially his humorous remarks! It was an honor to know Dick. I'll miss you!
The Holub Family.
