I'm sad to say that fellow Moderator and friend to many of us here on RV.net, Dick A. passed away yesterday.....He fought a long battle with cancer....

I know he met many members at the various rally's that he and his wife Sandi attended throughout the years....

What many don't know is Dick was an integral part of making RV.net what it is today....As I understand....he came on board early on in RV.nets existence and wrote many of the individual forum descriptions that are still in place today.....


Please keep his family in your thoughts and prayers....


I will update with any details as they become available.....

Dick gave me an accumulator for my trailer water system about 12 years ago. I still use it today. That was the only time I met him, but it was easy to see that he was a good guy. Very warm and welcoming.
