Richard P. Conniff

West Point, 1945

Be Thou At Peace

Dick and I became close friends during our years together at AMF, Inc. in their defense business. I worked out of Greenwich, CT and Dick out of DC on a number of projects together. We socialized with our wives as well and I remember Ruth Conniff's tears in having to walk a long distance in New York City in very uncomfortable shoes. Dick was a great guy. I was with him last at our Class of 1945 Reunion when we sat together during that wonderful boat ride around New York harbor. We both were awed by the magnificence of the Statue of Liberty. I'll miss him!
