I was sorry that there had only been a few posts from the Monitor and Monitor blog and also thought it would be interesting to contact Dickes. I have been writing from his blog the last several posts.
However, after typing in his name, I found out that he had died in 2010.
Part of his obituary reads:
Theodore Walcott Dickes, of Encinitas, California, formerly of Old Saybrook, Connecticut, passed away on March 20, 2010, at the age of 82. He was born in Middletown, Connecticut.
He served in the U.S. Navy 1945-1946 in Europe. At discharge, he married Virginia, both were age 19. He joined the Standard-Knapp Corporation of Portlant, Ct., in 1947 and was with them for fifty years, and was Vice-President of Sales and Marketing.
He received a Master of Science degree from Rennselear Polytechnic Institute in Troy, New York, in 1981.
For thirty years, he and Virginia lived in Old Saybrook, Ct., in a home overlooking a salt marsh at the mouth of the Connecticut River.
