Richard “Dick” Batson passed away Oct. 14, 2016.

One thing in life that is very valuable is having friends. Dick
moved to Oxnard, Calif., many years ago where he met up with his
special friend Barbara. They met at the Channel Island Yacht Club
where they were active members.

Then he and a few friends moved to Lake Havasu City. Here he made
more friends as he shagged cars for Anderson’s, Bradley and
Paradise. On Fridays, Dick liked to bring donuts to Lowe’s where he
worked part-time and made lots of new friends. He also became an
active member of the London Bridge Yacht Club. There he was able to
do a lot of boating activities.

You could always catch up with him at the Eagles where he enjoyed
eating and conversing with his friends. In between all of this he
traveled several times to “Cajun Country,” Louisiana to enjoy all
his wonderful Cajun friends. And last but not least, were all the
wonderful friends he went with to the NASCAR races or his buddies he
sat with at home watching his favorite racer, Earnhardt win.

Our friend Dick, an ex-Marine, had a bad fall and was unable to
recover. All of his friends will miss him terribly.
