Dick Osborn September 22, 1937 to January 6, 2008
While snorkeling on vacation with his family at Poipu Beach, Kauai, Hawaii, Dick Osborn died of a heart attack. He will be missed by all of us who knew and loved him. We will miss his sincere kindness, dedication to the things he believed in, positive words, and wonderful sense of humor.
He lived a long and rich life and seemed to enjoy every minute of it. He died doing what he loved, in a place that was special to him, with the people he loved.
