| In 1995, on the
occasion of celebrating their youngest son, Sam's, wedding to Debryn
Habecker, Dick and Flo took retirement and boarded a flight with their
oldest son Don, and his wife, Pat, for a slightly slower pace in Santa
Ana, California. Dick was 75 years old and had been a
missionary in China and Taiwan for a total of 48 years. Flo, ten
years younger, had served 37 years in Taiwan.
The pace was only slightly slower, as they soon were embroiled in speaking to Chinese churches in Southern California. Dick continued putting to paper the lessons he learned in four plus decades as a missionary, and at the age of 84 he completed his sixth and final book. He also preached his last sermon at the age of 84 and finally retired from public ministry. |

| Those of us who
are honored to be his children, grandchildren and great grandchildren,
along with those of us who know him and may have been touched by his
ministry, want to take this moment to wish Dick Webster the most happy
85th birthday. His love, his wisdom, his example of how to follow
the Lord implicitly, are part of his legacy, and we will not forget
it. Nor can we forget the great contributions of Lucille and Flo,
who have partnered with him over his long and profitable life.
Flo and Dick Webster, 2003.
