“Dick was a nineteenth century southern gentleman. He was courteous, courageous and honest. I have known him for forty-three years and been in business with him, in the office next to him, for forty-two years. During that time, we never raised our voices, had an argument, or had even a significant
disagreement.
A PhD student and protégé’ of Dr. A.P. Black (who probably was the world’s leading expert in water chemistry and treatment technologies), Dick was a brilliant engineer. He specialized in municipal and industrial water and wastewater treatment. He developed the EPA NPDES discharge limitations for the sugar cane industry and the timber products industry, the treatment processes for the citrus products industry and served many industrial and municipal clients.
At a specialty chemical manufacturing client’s request, Dick once designed an industrial chemical/physical/biological wastewater treatment plant that would treat “anything”. As President until just a few years ago, he steadily and reliably led our firm through significant successes and challenges
Dick was an excellent example of a servant leader. He sincerely cared about the welfare of our people and went the extra mile to help when someone was facing life’s challenges. The last time I was able to speak with him, despite his condition, he inquired about our firm and our people.
The very best tribute to Dick’s memory will be for us to recommit our efforts to serving our clients and each other as he did, with integrity, knowledge, and service. “ – Bob Edmunds, PE
