I had occasion to drive by his house in a wealthy gated enclave of Lakewood Ranch in Sarasota. Huge palace. He does a lot of philanthropy in this area. Also hangs out at a local restaurant where he holds court.

Had the chance to meet Dick at at Sons of Italy banquet in Worc 20-something years ago. Spoke with him for about 10 minutes and he couldn't have been more friendly & cordial. Best ambassador CBB has ever had.

I heard Dick speak at the huge Catholic Education Foundation dinner here in Louisville 5 or 10 years ago. He was sensational--went on about 25 minutes-hilarious. I believe he donated his speaker's fee to charity.

...had HC not run out of gas vs Michigan in 1977 the next opponent would have been Dickie V's Detroit Titans!
