Mr Flick and his wife Bernadette were like another set of parents or another aunt and uncle. Mr Flick was truly a good man.

Deepest sympathies are sent out to all the Flicks. I had the pleasure of meeting Bob and Bernie down on the Blair Shore where they had a cottage close to my parent’s cottage. We were great summer neighbors. We’d spend summers picnicing, boating, playing horseshoes, playing cards, singing old songs, kick ball, and swimming on the river–always a cold beer there on a hot summer day. Always remember Uncle Tony and Bob whistling at the girls as we’d go for a swim or go near the minnow pond to catch minnows. My Dad and Mom (Joe and Betty Peel) loved Bob and Bernie and, of course, your Uncle Tony–just such nice friends. I have many fond memories.
I hope all of your fondest memories of your Dad bring you great comfort in your time of sorrow. He loved you all that’s for sure. You are in my thoughts and prayers.
With deepest and sincerest sympathies, Tammy Peel, Bear, DE
