We have so many wonderful memories of 14 & 16 South Fulton Street, being neighbors who shared that common wall for 10 years. I always loved hearing the piano & Dicks beautiful voice as he practiced for Sunday morning worship. He & Barb we’re kind & caring, checking in and saying hello to our three small children. That twinkle in his eye made an awesome Christmas Santa. We share our deepest sympathy & prayers Binkley family whom he loved so very much – Geoff & Janet Groff

I am so sorry to hear that Dick has passed. His personality was larger than life. I remember Dick Binkley from attending Abbeyville Christian Church. I was a kid. I enjoyed listening to him in choir and trying to make my voice just like his! You are loved, Mr. Binkley and will be remembered with love!
