Richard "Dick" Francis Naddy III

VALPARAISO, IN -

As retirement approached, he decided to alter career paths, and spent his last ten working years in the Real Estate business in Northwest Indiana. He especially enjoyed assisting young families and veterans in finding their first home. This career gave him freedom to spend time with his grandkids. Dick was a current parishioner at St. Elizabeth Ann Seton Catholic Church.

Rich & I became friends while working in real estate. He was a great guy, always pleasant, loved his family, & enjoyed engaging in in a variety of conversations. After we retirement, we often met for marathon lunches that we enjoyed. Rich will be sorely missed but never forgotten.
