Richard SELTZER Obituary

I was his student in early 90’s. He honestly gave me the most valuable tools anyone has ever given me. He had incredible foresight and complete empathy for all living. I
used to see him in the fan years later and he always amazed me. What a magical person he was. Thank you.

I am so sorry to hear of Mr. Seltzers passing. I was a student of his at Chesterfield Tech in 92-94. He was my all time favorite teacher. We saw each other over the years after I graduated and he kept up with my career in the floral industry. He was a wonderful man. He will be greatly missed.
My condolences to his family.

July 12, 2011 - I am very sorry to just find out that Mr. Seltzer died. I was a student in his Horticulture class at the Tech Center. I called Mr. Seltzer monthly to see how he was doing. My wife and I will miss him very much.

I knew Dick for over 30 years as a neighbor and friend. I moved from our old block on Hanover many years ago, but saw him frequently on his regular walks. He was always cheerful and curious about family, children, garden and other news.
We will forever keep him in our hearts as a most wonderful person full of good natured friendship and enterprise.

JoAnne, Marnie & Sigmon,
We were so sorry to hear of your loss. May your hearts be filled with the wonderful memories of joyful times you all spent together. We have wonderful memories of many times spent with Dick. It was so nice to see him this summer on his way to the lake. May God bless you and your family in this time of sorrow. As the days and weeks pass, and you return to life's routine, may you continue to feel comforted by the love and support of family and friends. Please accept our deepest sympathies, you are in our thoughts and prayers. Please let us know if there is anything that we can do. Jim, Jean, Andrea & Pete

Dick Seltzer will always be remembered for his great smile and the many lives he touched at CTC. My deepest sympathy to his familly. He will be dearly missed.

I am so saddened to hear of the news of Dick's death. Dick volunteered for me in the Greenhouse at LGBG. He supported me so much and encouraged me to take up teaching Horticulture in high school when I was laid off. I am now entering my 5th year of teaching thanks to the encouragement of Dick.

I have in my office a collection of items that Dick would bring back to me in the fall when he returned from his yearly retreat to New York!

My sympathy to his sisters JoAnne and Marnie and also to Bob.

I volunteered with Dick at Lewis Ginter and looked forward to our horticultural discussions each week. He was always cheerful, upbeat, and a joy to be around. His absence will be sorely missed.

Our deepest sympathy to the family. Dick was a dear soul, a great guy, always willing to help, and a delight to be around. He will be missed greatly.

I am so sorry for your loss. I had the priveledge to volunteer with Dick at LGBG and looked forward to our time together. Dick was a delightful man and will be missed.

Dick was always one who could be counted on to help when help was needed. His aid and association will be missed.
