Condolence From: gary hoaks
Condolence: So sorry for your family's loss. My grandpa Cecil Hoaks used to live across the road from your house years ago, we would always go down to your house and play in the junk yard with Dickie and Cathy. My uncle John also did a lot of work over the years for Dick. Elmer Hoaks was my dad,he used to race with Dick back in the 60's. He is gonna be missed by lots, he was a great man and the king of late model dirt track racing, he was always my all-time favorite. Anytime he was on the track I would not take my eyes off of the track because I was amazed just how good he drove that stock car. I was totally heart broken when I heard the news, will keep the family in our thoughts and prayers!!

Condolence: I send my sympathies to the entire Potts family at this time. We truly lost a real racing legend this week. My heart breaks, for Dick Potts was my all time favorite dirt track driver. I loved that man and his racing abilities! Dick will truly be missed! I'm thankful to have been able to meet him after all the years of watching him race. God bless your family.

Condolence From: Anthony Burley
Condolence: To the family, I am sorry for your loss. he will truly be missed. I enjoyed listening to the stories and seeing the star in his eye as he told them when I visit him for parts at the junk yard. He was a good man and he lived a great life. Me left a legacy that most men only dream of having. His memory will never die or be forgotten.

TWO roads diverged in a yellow wood,
And sorry I could not travel both
And be one traveler, long I stood
And looked down one as far as I could
To where it bent in the undergrowth;

Then took the other, as just as fair,
And having perhaps the better claim,
Because it was grassy and wanted wear;
Though as for that the passing there
Had worn them really about the same,

And both that morning equally lay
In leaves no step had trodden black.
Oh, I kept the first for another day!
Yet knowing how way leads on to way,
I doubted if I should ever come back.

I shall be telling this with a sigh
Somewhere ages and ages hence:
Two roads diverged in a wood, and I—
I took the one less traveled by,
And that has made all the difference.
