Dick had a firm belief in the gospel of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. He served in several different callings including Branch President twice and 10 years as Stake Executive Secretary. He served 3 years as a part time missionary with his wife, Dee, in the LDS Conference Center. Dick was extremely talented with cement work, construction and wood working. He could make beautiful furniture and his home and yard were a reflection of his many talents. He enjoyed camping, hunting, and 4 wheeling. He was especially fond of meeting new people and sharing the gospel of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. He always had a knack for sharing personal stories and experiences. He loved people and had a special place in his heart for handicapped individuals and those with special needs. He had a unique gift for remembering people and relationships he developed from the many places he lived and stayed in touch with many people.

He loved his 6 children Kristy Lynn Cannon (Mike), Lori Kay Newbold, Richard Scott North (Lori Paige), Misty Dawn Hardy (Dustin), Wayne Dallas North, Nicole Joy Lee (Mike), 12 grandchildren and 11 great grandchildren.
