Fellow Packard enthusiasts, many of you will know Dick Benjamin of Temecula, Southern California. Unfortunately, Dick died from complications suffered after surgery a couple of days ago and will be sadly missed. Dick was a great Packard man and had an enormous knowledge of the marque, particularly the late '40's and 50's models. I bought my '56 Patrician from Dick and have yet to meet a more honest or helpful person - a true gentleman in every sense of the word. I consider Dick a very good friend and was fortunate to be able stay with he and Nancy when John King and I visited the US earlier this year. Along with many others, I'll miss him dearly. RIP Dick.
