Richard Lipnick, July 3, 1938 – May 15, 2011

It was with shock & sadness that I learned from reading in the Copper Gazette that Richard Lipnick had died. Richard lived in the Diamond XX community down the road from me. The last time Richard & his wife, Carolyn, were in my home it was for our 2010 Christmas’s celebration with friends & neighbors. How wonderful it was to see them both as they graced our party with not only good food but great conversation.

Whenever Richard drove by and I was out front with the horses, he always stopped and had something nice to say. We would spend a few moments talking and then each of us would continue on with our busy days. Those encounters always brightened my day and I will miss them and Richard very much.
