Richard Herbert Gray

West Point, 1955

Be Thou At Peace

Posted by Tom Horst on June 9, 2002:

Although Dick and I were acquaintances while cadets, we became good friends at the Engineer Officer Basic Course, and during several ensuing assignments together. He was an usher at our wedding, and we godparents to one of his children. Dick and Bev, Ruth and I became quite close; we frequently stayed in their home, and they in ours, always to great good times. Dick was an excellent poker hand, a great bridge partner, a terrible but serious golfer, and a great, good friend. I miss his wry, scathing humor and his wolfish grin. I can only say...Well done, Dick, be thou at peace.
