So sorry to hear of Dick’s passing. He had a quick and easy smile for everyone. He is already missed!
Fun Man who was always making us laugh.
Dick did so much for so many especially in the world of Magic locally and Nationally.. he definitely left a mark and a good legacy!
Harry and I send our love and condolences to Mary Ann and the family. Dick leaves a marvelous legacy, not only through his family, but through the joy he brought to so many for so many years. The world needs more men like Dick Blowers.
Dick’s name was on my very first S.A.M. National Membership Card. What a great friend to magicians. He will be dearly missed.
So sorry to hear. Dick was a wonderful guy, intelligent, and giving. He was well known in the world of Magic and a very good friend.
Great clown and friend to all magicians that met him. I’ve had the pleasure to dine at his home and work with him on magic auctions, and of course work with him in as a fellow officer at SAM meetings. He will be missed.
Dick always had a welcoming smile for every new magician that joined Assembly 8. I will always have fond memories of him.
Sending my condolences to Uncle Dick’s family. I have many fond memories of visiting him with grandpa Shirley and Grandma Jeanne.
Sending love and hugs ❤️
