Our condolences to you and Carol and to Dick’s family. Angie Smith wanted me to let you know that she would be glad to help out in any way she can. I’ll be glad to send her contact info to you once things settle down.
I will miss Dick a lot. He was a great man.

To all our Bujinkan Family,
I am sad to inform you all that Shihan Dick Severance passed away this morning. While for many, he was a great friend and teacher; for Carol and myself, and many others among us, Dick was true family. He will be sorely missed.
Please keep his wife Bess and his family in your prayers.
Thank you all.
Karl Koch

So sorry to hear that. Thank you for letting us know.
Dick-san is a true warrior and will no doubt be extra strong for all those that love him.
Special thoughts and prayers indeed for his family.
